Event Details

Take the first steps into designing graphics for laser cutting. Using Inkscape, a free Vector Graphics Software, we will create custom coaster designs to engrave and cut out of 1/8” wood. No previous experience required. Ages 9 and up.

After completing this badging class, you will be able to use the laser cutter/engraver on your own during Open Hours at Library 21c, East and Sand Creek Library's Makerspaces. If all you need is badging, click here for an online option.

Note: patrons under 18 will need to have a signed Creative Space Use Agreement for Minors to use the Makerspaces during open hours. You are encouraged to submit this at the class so that we have it on file. You must be at least 9 years of age to be in the Makerspaces. Children 9 - 11 must be accompanied by a guardian.

Please note that your completed badges will be added to your library card. If you don't yet have a library card, you can sign up online here or in person at any library in Pikes Peak Library District. Join us and start making today!
