 Families are invited to join us every 1st and 3rd Saturday of the month for a free,
fun hands-on project. These mind-expanding projects help children discover creative
play through science, technology, engineering, the arts and mathematics. On Saturday,
November 21, we will be hosting a very special double SPS event, with guest Starstack.

This is a drop-in program for the whole family; participants can join anytime from
10am-1pm, but we recommend allocating a minimum of 30-45 minutes for each activity.
Parents/guardians are expected to stay with their children at all times and actively
participate in the workshop.

**Families are invited to join us in the THINQubator for our regular STEAM-Powered
Saturday event; this workshop's topic is "DIY Fidget Spinners!" You'll use common
household objects to design your very own fidget spinner. Then, you can head over
to the Community Room for a 3D design and printing workshop with special guest [Starstack.](https://starstack.com/about)
Attend one workshop or come to both, your choice!**

This workshop is recommended for families with children ages 7+, but all ages are
welcome. This workshop does require some finer motor skills. Parents/guardians are
asked to use their discretion when deciding whether a specific activity is the right
choice for their kids, keeping in mind that advanced activities may take longer 
and require more fine motor skills to complete.

Brought to you for free through the support of the T Backer Memorial Foundation,
and the Troy Savings Bank Charitable Foundation, Inc.

**Drop-in, no registration required.**
