How to Set Up Your Visit to the Makerspace

GSLC MakerspaceAccess to the Makerspace is provided with all GSLC Reservations!
With this access, you can utilize all of the tools, materials, and resources available to you. There areguidebooks and instructional materials to help introduce you to new tools and leadbadge-earning activities.

You don’t have to be an expert maker to lead a visit at the Makerspace! To set yourself up for success, it is recommended that you review all guidebooks either before or during your visit - review the rules, see what activities you are interested in and decide if you need to bring anything.

The Makerspace should always be supervised and lead by an adult. We want to encourage creativity and innovation, safely!
