Creative Minds Will Love the RHS Maker Space

Ridgewood High School’s Maker Space Open House  •  Monday September 18  •  5-8pm
Tinkering is all the rage these days. If you haven’t heard about it, trust me–you will. Tinkering spaces are places in schools and camps where students can go to turn an idea into reality. These spaces have tools, 3D printers, sewing machines: whatever a student needs to take the extra step in making their school project unique.
Here in Ridgewood, we are so fortunate that our kids have a space like this at Ridgewood High School. If yu spent some time at Super Science Saturday, you saw the result of many of these projects. Some were truly amazing. I still can’t get over the projects that were created by the 3D printer! And I loved watching those layers form.
Hopefully, we’ve piqued your curiosity and this week, you’ll have a chance to check out the RHS Maker Space for yourself. On September 18 from 5-8 pm stop by and check out the Maker Space for an open house.  During the open house, you will be able to check out the space and learn about upcoming programs for both children and adults.  Enjoy some light refreshments and enjoy activities for all ages.
