24 Hour Make-a-thon: Opening Event of Middlebury's Makerspace!

On Friday, May 11th, the college makerspace will open its doors to the college-community at large with a 24(ish) hour make-a-thon. The event will begin at 5 PM with an open house and tool showcase until 7 PM. Come learn about laser engraving, 3D printing, and computer-controlled milling and get some inspiration for how you may want to use the space.

On Saturday, there will be three classes on digital fabrication taught by community members and a special guest from Harvard. One class is on 3D printing, one on computer-controlled milling, and one on laser cutting. You can sign up for these at the open-house but you’ll have to get there early before they fill up. The rest of the make-a-thon various people will be in the space working on projects.

The makerspace is located in The Bunker (the portion of FIC closest to BiHall), you can enter by taking the steps right next to the seminar room off the terrace or by the outside door on ground level.
