We'll provide the supplies and the instructions, and every Thursday we'll have staff on hand to give you guided assistance. From sewing to 3D design, and from programming to painting, we'll have a project for everyone!

Each project runs from 4 to 7 weeks. Storage space will be provided by the library where necessary.
