Program Description

Event Details

It's time to break it and make it! Do you wonder how things are made? Join us for a monthly deconstruction lab where we take apart common objects, see what parts they contain, and create something new from the pieces. Take your work of art home when you are done, or leave it behind for the next breaker-maker lab! Ages 8-18.
