Workshop Description:

Get ready for a Spooktacular Saturday of making, coding, and engineering!

In this 3-hour hands-on workshop, you’ll combine 3D printing, electronics, coding, and engineering to create your very own interactive Halloween decoration.

Learn how to slice and 3D print your own ghost, build and wire an electronic circuit, and program it with an Arduino to come alive! Your finished ghost will detect when someone walks by, eerily light up, and play a spooky song. By the end of the workshop, you’ll have your own interactive Halloween decoration to take home—perfect for scaring your friends, your family, and maybe even your pets!

No previous 3D printing, electronics, or coding experience is required.
Just bring your creativity and be ready to build!
