With 3D printers and sewing machines, laser cutters and hand tools, makers are innovating and revolutionizing the creative process of turning ideas into tangible objects. Washington College professors Amanda Kramer and Brian Palmer are on the front lines of the Maker Movement encouraging their first-year students to find solutions, think creatively, and produce prototype products to assist with natural disaster recovery efforts. On Wednesday, March 30, they’ll be stepping out of the classroom and into Kent County Public Library to talk about maker culture and share some of the projects taking form in Washington College’s IDEAWORKS makerspace.
This interactive talk is free, questions are welcome, and attendees will have the opportunity to be a part of the maker revolution by engaging with a hands-on project. For more information, visit kentcountylibrary.org or call 410.778.3636.
Wednesday, March 30, 6pm, Chestertown Branch
