In this dynamic Make Something Session workshop, children ages 6-8 and up will explore the exciting world of circuit design while blending technology with creativity. They’ll learn how to construct simple electrical circuits, then use their newfound knowledge to enhance their artistic foam creations. By integrating their circuits into sculptural designs, they’ll bring their creations to life, combining the beauty of art with the functionality of engineering in a fun, hands-on experience
