Come craft with us in the Maker Space. Meet other crafters at this in-person monthly tutorial. Learn what our equipment can do without having to know how to use any of it! Each craft features elements pre-made using one of the machines and is customizable. Each month uses a new piece of equipment.

As a bonus, you can ask our Maker Space experts questions about the space and equipment. Take a look at other projects and make a one-on-one appointment to have us walk you through it.

Perfect for beginners, ages 18 and up.

Make your own snow globes! Arrange the beautiful miniature decorations inside the globes, add water and glitter, then seal it. When shaken, the "snow" swirls around your custom winter scene.
