There is a kind of revolution going on in programming and museums are one
of the leaders of the *movement*. Whether you call them Maker, Community,
or Hacker Spaces, these DIY working areas in libraries and museums have
become a popular meeting and creative program space for patrons of all
ages.
This timely workshop will outline what Maker Spaces are and where they are
located. The workshop will explore the best examples, and present *how to*
advice, practical idea suggestions, and resources for creating art,
science, career awareness, and hands on collaboration and learning into
your museum or art center.
Much more than a make it and take it, the Maker Space provides the tools,
instruction, and company of others that inspire and enable creative
making. The programs are most popular with teens and young adults but can
include all ages.
Maker program participant activities range from learning Fine Art Painting
skills to creating Ancient Astronomical Instruments and everything in
between. Co-creaters and subject experts may collaborate to build robots, a
new business, 3-D graphic T-shirts, or bicycle sculpture. It's not just
primarily physical “doing” that happens at the Maker Space. Teens Maker
workshops can include poetry making, writing workshops, language coding and
other intellectual pursuits. More
