Registration is now open for our next Maker Workshop

Explore health and wellness maker programs, learn how to engage underserved users, crowdfund your makerspace, and launch a sustainable maker program from scratch at School Library Journal's sixth installment of Maker Workshop.

As a participant in the course, you will view live sessions and join the conversation via live chat. (All sessions are recorded for on demand access). Most importantly, you’ll work with a dedicated adviser in an online coaching environment to gather resources and best practices and connect with peers from across North America (and beyond).

Learn from experienced leaders how to:

• Assess your community’s needs, and build actionable blueprints for inclusive maker programs tailored to serve diverse groups—from the underserved to the elderly.
• Design and launch a maker program from scratch, from ideation to execution, including making the case to stakeholders and funders.
• Create a program that is truly sustainable—in effort, resources, and audience engagement.
