Tween Maker Time

Join us at the East County Creative Learning Room to make something cool, learn a new skill, and meet friendly people. Ideal for kids in grades 4–6.

Tweens will be provided an option to participate in a focused STEAM project, chosen by Creative Learning staff. Each week will have a different focus. Examples include 3D printers, laser cutter, craft cutters for vinyl stickers and heat transfers, robotics, sewing machines, custom t-shirts and tote bags, all sorts of art supplies, and more. Creative Learning staff and volunteers will be present to help you learn how to use our tech equipment to design things and express yourself. Some of the creative learning equipment will be unavailable for use during this time.

Children in fifth grade or under must be accompanied by an attentive adult.

Space is limited; every participant (tween or teen) must be signed up in advance to reserve a spot. If you are bringing a friend, child or family member, everyone must be signed up!

Creative Learning Room programming is made possible by gifts to The Library Foundation, a local nonprofit dedicated to supporting Multnomah County Library's innovative and groundbreaking work.
