About the Innovation Station
The Innovation Station is a creative DIY space that provides tools for makers to work on projects in the community. The area is free to use; however, makers are encouraged to bring their own supplies contingent on pre-approval from staff to ensure safety. The library will supply all materials free of charge for the workshops scheduled in the Innovation Station.
Open Studios
The Library will host Open Studios in the Innovation Station (for ages 12 and up) on Mondays and Wednesdays, from 4 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., and Sundays from 1 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Patrons can drop in and learn about the equipment and work independently on their own projects with staff on hand if assistance is needed. Users can learn to 3D print, laser cut, sew, crochet, embroider, make buttons, Cricut tech and more.
