ABOUT THE MAKERSPACE
The Makerspace opened in 2017, and is made possible thanks to generous grant funding from the Holmberg Foundation.
The library’s Makerspace is laid out to encourage visitors of all ages to explore independently.
Staff-led activities are listed each month in our programming calendar. Examples include 3-D printing, robotics, Play-doh, Origami, Snap Circuits, and more.
STEAM-themed activities are available for visitors to explore independently. Options include our Lego table and Lego Wall, fort builders, magnetic ramp wall, marble runs, and more.
Our sensory play area encourages hands-on learning through play for ages 6 and under, with activities like play food, light tables, building blocks, and more.
The Makerspace promotes learning through open exploration, creativity and collaboration, while also encouraging children to apply and improve their literacy skills. Read more about the benefits of Makerspaces here.
