About the event

Join the STEAM Team in the Innovation Lab during specified open hours to do paper crafts by creating your own Zine and fold origami!

Zines (pronounced "zeens") are tough to define because they can be so many things! Basically, they are self-published booklets containing anything you want - art, writing, drawings, recipes, poetry, comics, etc. The content and look are totally up to the creator. It's all about self-expression. Origami is an ancient art technique to fold paper into exciting and unexpected shapes.

This is a self-paced activity. You can drop in during the listed Open Lab Hours.

Innovation Lab Open Hours:

Monday: Closed Tuesday: 1pm - 5pm Wednesday: 3pm - 7pm Thursday: 10am - 2pm Friday: 1pm - 5pm Saturday: 3pm - 5pm (*different this week)

Hours subject to change based on staffing and programming needs.
