Do you want to explore the maker movement? If so, this activity will allow you to let go of your inhibitions and to let your creativity flow! This family friendly event will give you the opportunity to design rebellious inventions or to make your own creations! Participants will have the chance to use materials from a Maker Space such as wood sticks, electric wires , glitter and more to make this magic happen! You are worried that you won’t have inspiration that day? Don’t worry! Task cards in both English and French will be available to give you ideas! During this workshop, participants will be able to explore the connections between the arts and science, technology, engineering and mathematics. At the end of the activity, the attendees will get the chance to be part of a collective artwork inspired by the organizer’s project Rebel with a Cause.
