The emerging field of e-textiles is exciting, fun, beautiful and overflowing with opportunities for innovation!
Participants will learn basic circuit design, how to sew LED lights into fabric, and build simple circuits sewing with conductive thread. They’ll explore the aesthetics of circuits, and be introduced to the possibilities of embedding computational and electronic elements into wearables, and even architecture, and home furnishings. This workshop will be led by Dayle Payne, a veteran school teacher, and a leader in the STEM and Maker movements in Vermont.

For ages 10 and up. Space is limited – please call the library at 244-7036 to register.

This program is made possible by a grant from The Vermont Community Foundation, with support from Craftsbury Public Library, Champlain Mini Maker Faire, VT Dept. of Libraries, and the VT Library Association.
