Ever wish you could make your clothes fit a little better? Or maybe you found an almost-perfect piece that needs a touch of your own personal style? Or is it a costume that you need, and you wish you could mash-up other clothes to make it just right?
If any of these sound like you, let Libby help. Our local artist and sewing extraordinaire returns once more for a more advanced look at using a modern-day sewing machine, and we’ll get some hands-on practice putting one to use. You can bring your own clothes and materials to play with, or you may use what we have available to explore the same skills.
This program builds upon the skills learned in our Upcycled Tote Bags & Sewing Basics workshop, scheduled for September 16th. While it is not required, please consider attending both workshops in order to get the most out of each.
This program is geared toward teens in grades 7-12, and registration is strongly encouraged.

Show your Skills in the Ring!
Students learn to create a vehicle that can compete in a SumoBot tournament. Each robot attempts to push the others out of the ring while avoiding falling out. In addition to the coding, students have an engineering challenge to create attachments that can increase the defensive or offensive capabilities of their SumoBot. This workshop develops teamwork and cooperation as well as friendly competition during the tournament! Ages 12+
