The MAKE Movement is a celebration of inventiveness, technical finesse and creativity. It connects active hands around the world. On Sunday afternoons from 1 to 3pm this Fall, the Museum will explore the meaning of MAKing in workshops for experiment that connect to the many inspirations of the Movement. A core concept: your passion matters. Suggest new challenges, new directions at any time. Each Sunday will offer new projects: some to build, some to watch; some for young children, some for older children; some for free, some for a small fee.
