Design it. Print it. Paint it.

This hands-on, one-day workshop is a fun and accessible introduction to designing objects for 3D printing. Students will learn how 3D printers work, build core 3D design skills using Tinkercad, and bring their creations to life by printing and painting their own models. The workshop also introduces students to online maker communities like Thingiverse, where they can explore and remix existing designs.

This is a one-day workshop, 10am-4pm on Fri 3 Jul.

After the workshop students and families are welcome to explore the rest of the museum at no extra charge!
