Revive your old t-shirt with a statement print, design a stamp or reprint a unique game piece that has been lost: MeetUp at the Humboldt Forum!

This workshop invites everyone with or without previous knowledge to get to know different maker space technologies. On various dates (see below), we will explain how laser cutter, 3D printer, cutting plotter, sewing or embroidery machine can be used to make practical everyday objects.

Inspired by the museum’s current exhibitions and themes, you can design and create your own graphics and objects on laptops using Inkscape or Tinkercad software. If you are clever, you can take a finished product home with you at the end.

The number of participants is limited. Please book one free participation ticket per person! The workshop is not suitable for children and young people under the age of 16.
