The Hangar
Every month, we’ll have a different kit available with all the supplies you’ll need for that month’s project. Pick up your kit from the library, watch the tutorial on the Hangar’s YouTube playlist at home, and make your creation! Adult and Teen events in the Hangar are open to makers ages 14 and up. Kits will be available the first (open) day of each month, one kit per library card and while supplies last.
