Tweens

Join us at the Parker Williams Library Innovation Lab for our 3D Printer Orientation!  

This orientation session will introduce participants to the 3D printing services we offer at the library. Those who complete the orientation will then be able to request supervised time to use a 3D printer at any HCPL branch that has one. Attending this orientation is mandatory before patrons can request time to use a 3D printer in the future.     

This event is open to all ages. Children ages 12 and under must be accompanied by an adult guardian.      

Create a little world in a small box. Learn how to create depth of field in an upcycled box. 

Materials provided: Small cardboard box (you may bring your own if you like), glue, cardstock, color pencils, scissors and markers.

No registration required. First come first served basis. Ages 10+
