Rationale

These 3 workshops are offered as an entry point into working with Arduino and Neopixels. It is a way to develop skills as well as have a noticeable outcome for participants and larger community. The Edge also offered a few drop in tinker and open lab style sessions to come in and have access to people, tools and skills.

The following is what happened in each workshop.

Skills development workshop
Content Development workshops
The final installation in The Edge will

* Showcase the creative output of State Library’s community of participants

* Showcase the variety and capacity of State Library design and fabrication resources

* Build new audiences and extend current audience knowledge of SLQ programs and resources
