Work solo or with a team to brainstorm, build, test, and improve your creations. You’ll stretch your imagination, think critically, and maybe even surprise yourself with what you can make. All materials provided—just bring your curiosity and your can-do attitude!

This month, we will be exploring engineering by creating 3D designs from 2 dimensional drawings!
