My Students

Art kids are the best problem solvers, the more tools and equipment we put in their hands the more creative and exposure to mediums prepare them for the evolving field that is art. As they grow as artists understanding these basic concepts of utilizing machines to make art provides them with conceptual understanding of Laser cutting and CNC machining.

My Project

Help Us build our arsenal of tools and equipment available to scholars as we return to in person learning. Having a digitally controlled cutting machine allows scholars to transfer digital skills to the real world! Scholars will have opportunity to make their own t-shirts through direct iron on transfers, or even making masks for screen printing. these machines can cut stencils, stickers, and labels, stamps and simple cosplay costume pieces.

This purchases will further our desire to build a makerspace on campus.

Wishlist items are a glow forge, and a CNC milling machine.
