Event Details

Join us for a come-and-go STEM-based crafting event.  Each month will feature a different challenge using recycled materials.  Take on the challenge with the materials provided or create something else; it’s up to you and your imagination!  This event is recommended for families with children ages 5 – 12 years old.

Materials will be available while supplies last on a first come, first served basis.

All children 8 and under must be accompanied by an adult.
