FREE Monthly Keychain Making Workshop! October 2026 Edition

Free family pumpkin keychain build! Laser-etch a face, laser-cut it out, then CNC-engrave your name on the back. All ages welcome! Ever run a laser cutter? How about a CNC router that steers your hands for you? Bring the whole family to Qua Workshops’ free monthly workshop, where you’ll move station to station like a real production line. At the first station, you choose one of four pumpkin faces, laser-etch it, and laser-cut your pumpkin out. At the next, you grab a handheld CNC router and engrave your name on the back. No experience needed, it’s totally free, and your custom keychain goes home with you. Pick a time slot that fits your schedule and come make some memories that last. There’s a new theme every month! All ages are welcome, but every child under 13 needs a parent with them. Closed-toe shoes are required.
