Check out this fun event coming up April 29, from 8:30 AM-3:45 PM! We are passing this along from the State Library Services, so don’t have more info about it than you see here. But CMLE members: We can provide you with a scholarship to cover expenses for continuing education programs such as this!

Are you interested in seeing how tinkerers, makers, and curious folk in Minnesota are incorporating tech and hands-on inquiry? ITEM is hosting a MakerSpace Bus Tour this spring! Join us as we visit different “flavors” of maker spaces around the metro area. Participants will have the chance to tinker, make connections, network, and talk to vendors about maker space ideas.
