Open Studio
2026-10-13 15:00:00 2026-10-13 17:00:00 America/New_York Open Studio Join us in Open Studio to submit 3D prints or explore the Cricut. Millhopper Branch - Room B

Tuesday, October 13
3:00pm - 5:00pm

Add to Calendar

Join us in Open Studio to submit 3D prints or explore the Cricut.

Open Studio is the time to submit 3D printing jobs or use the Cricut. Both can only be used with staff assistance. 

Children under 10 years old and younger will need an adult with them. Cricut and art supplies will not be provided.

While one-on-one instruction is not possible during Open Studio, some limited assistance with equipment may be available. The allowable print time is heavily dependent on the level of staffing and demand.

To print a job that is more than 29 grams of filament requires a library card in good standing, and the fee must be paid before collecting the item printed.

AGE GROUP: | All Ages | Adults (19 and up) |
