Laser Cut Your Own Fall Decoration

Join the Maker + STEAM team to use the laser cutter to cut and engrave an acrylic or wood fall decoration in a small group learning environment with hands-on help! This month you'll be able to choose between a pumpkin, leaf, or Dia de los Muertos outline template. We will use our materials and provide materials for one acrylic or wood wall/door decoration (roughly 5"x5" size) per registrant. Come ready with a design idea or just curiosity, and we will show you how you can design your own. This small-group atmosphere will help introduce you to the laser cutter in a welcoming setting and show you the process of completing a laser cut project to help you prepare for when you reserve the laser cutter on your own in the future. Registration is required. Participants will need to sign a safety waiver when in the makerspace. (This program is open to teens and adults. Teens under the age of 18 must have a guardian/parent present to sign the waiver.) We also ask that you take the online, self-paced laser cutter orientation prior to coming to the program (if you haven't already) so that the orientation setup steps are completed. Note: If you have any accessibility questions or accommodation needs, please contact us at Maker_STEAM@dconc.gov. We ask that all requests be made at least 3 business days prior to the event to ensure we can provide the best accommodations possible!
