Our Makerspace is free for anyone above the age of 14 to use. Teen & Makerspace staff have taken parts of the Makerspace to the high schools during the lunch periods so that students can get crafty and creative during their free time.

Have a crafty suggestion that we haven’t thought of? Send a message to teen@aapld.org to let us know!
