Maker Meetup
Bookish Crafting
Saturday, November 14
11:00am - 12:00pm
Sixteen Mile Branch
Creation ZoneBring a project to work on, share ideas, or simply connect with others in a relaxed, creative space. Open to all experience levels. Ages 13+.
Join fellow makers, creatives, and curious community members for casual themed meetups in the Creation Zone. Each session explores a different topic, interest, or creative prompt—from repair and reuse to textile arts, scrap projects, digital fabrication, and more.
Maker Meetups are community-focused gatherings rather than formal instructional classes. Participants are encouraged to work independently, collaborate, and learn from one another. Limited staff guidance is available, and equipment may be used independently based on staff capacity and equipment availability.
Session Theme: Bookish Crafting
Whether you're an experienced crafter, just getting started, or simply enjoy experimenting with book-themed crafts, this meetup is a relaxed opportunity to connect with others who share your interest. Participants are welcome to work independently, ask questions, or simply connect with fellow creatives.
Bring your own materials: To make the most of your creative time, please bring your own craft supplies if working on a project. Materials will not be provided.
