Revive your old t-shirt with a statement print, create your own laptop case out of felt and reprint a token that has been lost: MeetUp at the Humboldt Forum!

This workshop invites everyone with or without previous knowledge to try out different maker space technologies. By combining analogue and digital techniques we use laser cutter, 3D printer, cutting plotter or sewing and embroidery machines to creative useful everyday objects.

Inspired by the curiosity and innovative spirit of Wilhelm and Alexander von Humboldt and by the current exhibitions and topics of the Humboldt Forum, the maker space invites to collaborative tinkering and imaginative designing.

Please book a free ticket to participate!
