## About

An open makerspace for teens 12 and up at South Providence Library. Participants choose their own project and try out a range of tools, including a sewing machine, button maker, vinyl cutter, sublimation printer and heat press, plus plenty of crafting supplies. It suits teens who like to design and make things and want to learn new equipment at their own pace.
