Holiday Maker Workshop Engages Community

Sierra College Makerspaces / Posted In: Community, Makerspaces, Students / Dec 11, 2019

On December 6, 2019, Sierra Makerspaces held the third annual Holiday Maker Night at Hacker Lab powered by Sierra College.  Lead by Sierra College faculty, Sierra Makerspaces team members, Sierra College student interns, and business and community volunteers, more than 200 attendees spent an evening visiting 15 stations, making customized items, taking photos with Santa, and generally having a great time!    This outreach event is a favorite for both station leaders and community participants!
