Join us at the Parker Williams Library Innovation Lab for our Cricut Orientation!
This orientation session will introduce participants to the Cricut & Sublimation services we offer at the library. Those who complete the orientation will then be able to request supervised time to use the Cricut and Sublimation services at any HCPL branch that has one.
Attending this orientation is mandatory before patrons can request time to use a Cricut/Sublimation Printer in the future.
