Makers Play! Awesome August Automata

Makers Play! Awesome August Automata

Make little mechanical marvels from paper, paperclips, cardboard tubes, and other junk!

Get Creative & Play with Purpose at "Makers Play" Art Playshops!
Ready to turn trash into treasure? Join veteran art educator Kilikina and imaginative puppet designer Patricia Brubaker for a one-of-a-kind creative adventure! These lively hands-on Saturday "Makers Play" Playshops invite both youth and adults to explore the magic of upcycling through art.
