Cardboard Automata Workshop

Build quirky moving creations from cardboard, cams, and cranks in this hands-on workshop! Cardboard Automata Workshop Join us in person for the Cardboard Automata Workshop! We'll look at at how to use an offset cam to make automata come to life using common things you can find for free or easily gather really inexpensively. I'll demonstrate a few variations and how to control speed, direction, movement and other considerations so you can design your own scene. We'll focus on getting the mechanism working first and then build out and decorate your artistic vision. This class is beginner friendly and a great opportunity for parents and kids to work together. You will go home with a working automaton and the skills to make more of them whenever you want. All supplies will be provided.
