MakerDay Augustusburg - Festive making with the laser cutter

Location

entrance free

The dark season is the perfect opportunity to get creative - not with scissors and glue, but with lasers and digital precision! At MakerDay Augustusburg, the digital workshop in the Lehngericht will be transformed into an open hands-on workshop for anyone who is interested in technology, design and trying things out together.

You can realise your own winter ideas in small workshops: Stars, filigree tree ornaments, personalised gift tags or small wooden tea light holders - there are no limits to the imagination. You will also be shown how to turn a simple idea on the computer into a real object that the laser cutter brings to life with light.

Whether beginner or technology pro - everyone is welcome! The aim is to discover together which soft skills are required for makers: Teamwork, creative thinking, problem solving and communication. A memo wall will be used to record which skills become visible during the course of the day - and to learn from each other.

Simply come along between 10 am and 3 pm, experiment with moulds, materials and engravings and take home the unique piece you have made yourself - perhaps as a gift for Christmas. Materials, calculators and support are available here.

There will also be a lunchtime snack and plenty of room for discussion.

Results, photos and impressions of the MakerDay will also be shared online afterwards via the x-Inno Radar platform.

An event organised by the Branchenverband der Kultur- und Kreativwirtschaft Chemnitz und Umgebung e.V. (Kreatives Chemnitz) as part of the "x-Inno Radar" project with the kind support of the Interreg CENTRAL EUROPE programme with co-financing from the European Regional Development Fund.
