    Welcome to the high-tech playground of microcontrollers! In this class you'll learn the basics of circuit design and programming, build your first project, and so much more. It's the perfect blend of tech and creativity. Suitable for all levels - no prior knowledge is necessary, and interested minors 10 and older are welcome (a parent or designated adult must be present).


    Each session builds on the skills, knowledge and techniques acquired from activities along the way. We'll start with exercises that demonstrate basic breadboard wiring and coding inputs and outputs. Then we'll jump into more complex circuits and programming concepts, and start planning your own projects. Blinking LEDs, buzzing buzzers, and coding magic – it's like unlocking the secret language of electronics!


    This class will launch your journey into the microcontroller world and give you the skills and confidence to take on almost any Arduino project you may find or create in the future!

    After completion of this course, students will be able to:

    • Install the Arduino IDE, configure and add libraries and use the Serial Monitor.
    • Control single, multiple and RGB LEDS.
    • Receive and interpret digital inputs from buttons, switches, ultrasonic sensor modules and a DHT11 temperature and humidity sensor.
    • Collect and manipulate information from analog inputs such as an Analog Joystick, Infrared Receiver Module, thermometer and photocell.
    • Produce outputs to active buzzers, passive buzzers, servo motors, LCD displays, eight segment LEDs, DC motors, stepper motors and relays.


    Important Stuff:
    • Check the class times shown to ensure you can make it to every session.
    • Interested minors 10 and up are welcome to register for this class, but a parent or other designated adult must remain present.
    • No open toe shoes (anywhere in the facility)
    • Long hair and beards should be securely tied back, especially when soldering..

      Welcome to Lampwork Glass Art, where we're turning up the heat to create some incredible pieces! In this relaxed and hands-on class, we'll explore the basics of lampworking and send you home with something entrancing of your own making.

      Get ready for Valentine’s Day with a lampwork glass heart pendant! In this hands-on class you will learn how to melt borosilicate glass with an oxygen-propane torch, then shape the hot glass into a heart pendant using metal and graphite tools. Students will have the opportunity to make their own pendants in their choice of colors. Pendants will anneal in the kiln overnight and will be available to pick up the following day. This class is suitable for beginners and advanced students are also welcome!

      Please bring a water bottle and wear natural fibers and closed toe shoes.

      In this 4 hour workshop we'll start with the do's and don'ts, throw on some safety glasses, and ensure our workspace is good to go.

      • Wondering what those colorful glass rods are all about? We'll take a look at the essential tools – torches, brass stamps, and shaping gear – that turn those rods into artistic wonders.
      • Your instructor, local artist Emily Johnsen, will showcase the craft – melting, shaping, and transforming glass into some seriously awesome shapes.
      • Then you’ll dive in! It's your turn to grab the torch (figuratively) and start crafting your own beginner-friendly project as you try the layering, mixing, shaping and stamping that will make your glass pieces stand out.
      • Finally, you’ll find out how to cool and anneal your pieces properly to keep them looking fantastic.

      Whether you're a complete beginner or looking to hone your skills, this lampwork class is all about enjoying the process while crafting some impressive art. Let the fiery adventure begin!

I will demonstrate techniques for decorating your marbles with colored stripes and spirals. Your marbles will anneal in the kiln overnight and can be picked up the next day.

        • In this 4 hour workshop we'll start with the do's and don'ts, throw on some safety glasses, and ensure our workspace is good to go.
        • Wondering what those colorful glass rods are all about? We'll take a look at the essential tools – torches, brass stamps, and shaping gear – that turn those rods into artistic wonders.
        • Your instructor, local artist Emily Johnsen, will showcase the craft – melting, shaping, and transforming glass into some seriously awesome shapes.
        • Then you’ll dive in! It's your turn to grab the torch (figuratively) and start crafting your own beginner-friendly project as you try the layering, mixing, shaping and stamping that will make your glass pieces stand out.
        • Finally, you’ll find out how to cool and anneal your pieces properly to keep them looking fantastic.

        Whether you're a complete beginner or looking to hone your skills, this lampwork class is all about enjoying the process while crafting some impressive art. Let the fiery adventure begin!

        Important stuff:

        • No open toe shoes (anywhere in the facility)

              How To Make Turn a Wood Bowl - Complete ...Turning Your First Wooden Bowl ...

               If you’ve ever admired wooden bowls and wondered how to make them, here is your opportunity! We will guide you step by step through the process of turning your own bowl on the lathe with traditional turning tools. You’ll learn about stock selection, chucking, how to turn, lathe safety, and different bowl finishes. The cost of the class includes instruction as well as the wood to make the bowl, sandpaper, and finish. At the end of the day, you’ll have a bowl to take home! Length of class depends on students abilities, and can vary from 2 to 4 hours.
