Winter FabLab Workshops
What’s the FabLab you say? The FabLab is the Science Spectrum’s digital maker space that will offer introductions to Computer Aided Design (CAD) software and prototyping with a laser cutter, 3D printers, and much more! Check out the awesome Fab Lab classes being offered this Fall! After completing a 101 Workshop, participants are eligible to participate in future FabLab Design Days!
101 Child Workshops
Ages 10-13, 9AM-12PM
Price Per Class- Member $20/Non-Member $25
Saturday, January 9 – Laser Cutting 101
Participants will learn CAD software as they design digitally and make a prototype or two with the Fab Lab’s laser cutter. This class is a great introduction to basics of Inkscape and laser cutting. This class also counts as a prerequisite for future FabLab Design Days!

FabLab Design Days
Join the Maker Community with FabLab Design Days! Design Days are self-led workshops to design and create projects to take home or share with the growing Maker Community. Turn project ideas into reality with the Science Spectrum’s FabLab.
*Participants must complete at least one 101 workshop prior to participating in a FabLab Design Day. 101 completions will determine the equipment an individual can use during a Design Day.
Members $3/Non-Members $5 +materials used fee (FabLab provided materials ONLY)
*Participants will have access to all the design machines including but not limited to 3D printers, laser cutter, CNC router, vinyl cutter, and software programs*.
