Activities Grades 6 and up
Graphics design - Decals
Use simple computer-aided design (CAD) and stock icons to design your own stickers or decals. Or bring your own design in and scan it! In this workshop, you can convert any monochromatic image (you can bring one with you, use one of ours, or create one on-site) into a vinyl sticker or decal for your phone or laptop or whatever. We will provide vinyl decal material in a variety of colors, transfer tape, and the machinery to cut out your design.
Graphics design - T-shirts
Use simple computer-aided design (CAD) and stock icons to design a custom T-shirt (or pillowcase, or tote bag, or whatever) with heat transfer vinyl. Or bring your own design in and scan it! In this workshop, you can transfer any monochromatic image (you can bring one with you, use one of ours, or create one on-site) onto heat transfer vinyl and then transfer than onto any fabric-based article you want. We will provide heat transfer vinyl in a variety of colors, weeding tools, and the machinery to cut out your design.
Learn to solder
Make connections! Melt some metal! If you like building stuff that moves or blinks or beeps, you're eventually going to need to solder some electronics parts together. Or maybe you'd like to see how circuit boards work. In this workshop, you will be soldering components onto a small circuit board that lights up. Pin it to your jacket or backpack and show off your new skills.
