Join us for our 3D Printer Orientation!

Attending this orientation is mandatory before patrons can request time to use a 3D printer.
This event is open to all ages. Children ages 12 and under must be accompanied by an adult guardian.

Join us at the Parker Williams Library Innovation Lab for our Cricut-Sublimation Orientation!
Youth grades 4th – 12th will learn how to transform spontaneous ideas from improv games into structured story concepts. Through creative collaboration and quick-thinking exercises, participants explore how characters, conflicts, and resolutions come together to form compelling narratives. By the end of the session, students will present and “pitch” their original play concept as if selling it to a streaming service - building confidence, teamwork, and communication skills along the way. Tickets required and will be available 30 minutes before the program.
