Program Description

Body

For beginners. Come learn about the library's 3D printer service, different types of 3D printers and their uses and the steps involved in turning a 3D model into a 3D print! Participants will also have a chance to use some basic 3D modeling software to begin creating their own models.

This will be the first of four sessions (Wed, Feb 15; Mon, Feb 27; Wed, March 15; and Mon, March 20). Each session is separate and will focus on a different aspect of 3D modeling/printing. Participation in all sessions is not required and registration for each program should be done separately.

This program is part of the Project Next Generation grant and is open to students ages 10 to 18. Space is limited and registration is required for this event.

Funding for Project Next Generation is provided by the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services to the Secretary of State/Illinois State Library under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA).
