Summer Camps

When was the last time you used a sewing machine? In a world where reusing may be the most important skill we hone, mending fabric is a life changing skill. Learn how to thread a sewing machine, create basic mends, and turn fabric trash into treasure in this sewing machine crash course. Maker workshops are hands-on, skill-based sessions designed to build your confidence in expressing personal creativity. Amazeum team members will provide step-by-step guidance and support so there's no need for previous experience. 

The Amazeum believes tinkering develops the capacity for innovative problem solving by engaging students in hands-on, skill building projects that incorporate science, technology, engineering, art and math. Tinkering is an innovative approach to learning that focuses on open-ended explorations with materials, tools and ideas. As the leading resource for school based tinkering in NWA, the Amazeum offers several professional development workshops to support schools as they implement tinkering and develop makerspaces.
