Hawthorne Branch

MakerSpace

Explore space travel and colonization in this hands-on workshop from the Cade Museum.

Join Cade for a special Inventivity Workshop at the Hawthorne Branch! This hands-on workshop, designed for curious kids ages 7–11, invites young scientists to participate in fun experiments and problem-solving challenges. Discover how observation and curiosity can spark innovation, just like history’s greatest inventors.

This session’s topic is “Space Odyssey,” where students will explore space travel and colonization. Walk-ins the day of the workshop will be based on capacity. This is a drop-off program; adults who choose to stay may quietly observe the session.

Registration is required, as materials are limited.
