Do you have a family of Lego masters monsters at home? Come together to the library and make spooktacular builds with us this fall! Costumes welcome! Teams of one adult and one child will work together to build and show off a Lego masterpiece (and may encounter a few unexpected tricks and treats). Please register once per team. You do not need to register each person separately. Do you have extra Lego gathering dust that you might want to see live a new life at the Library? We are always in need of extra bricks!

Want to create an object on a 3D printer? Cut decals on a Cricut? Engrave a gift with a laser cutter? Create custom chocolate molds on a vacuum former? You can do it all – and more! – at the Innovation & Learning Center, the Desmond-Fish Public Library’s makerspace and education center. During open makerspace hours, patrons can use, learn about, and experiment with all the tools available in the ILC, whether to work on a personal project, dream up something new, or just learn new skills. Don’t know what to make? A new stay-and-make project is available every month, suitable for both new and experienced creators! Click here for a full list of makerspace equipment and software. Please note: due to staffing limitations, use for other library needs, or repair status, not all equipment or software may be available at each visit. Email our Digital Services Librarian or book an appointment to inquire about the use of specific materials. Some equipment may require a short training session and not be available for use by children. Some consumable resources (3D printer filament, vacuum former sheets, wooden boards etc.) may incur a small fee. Patrons may bring their own consumable resources for no charge. In order to accommodate everyone, dedicated one-on-one instruction is not available during open lab hours, although assistance with projects is available as time permits.
