REGISTRATION FULL. Join us at the library for a six-part, build-your-own hole for a mini golf course! Golf-the-Stacks will be a playable mini golf course right here in the library that is built, designed, coded, and created by you using microprocessors, Python or blocky code, and your imagination. If you are creative and love to build, this event is for you! All levels of coders and builders are welcome as we will be helping each other in a collaborative setting. You only need to register once to be registered for all 6 sessions. About our workshop leader: Caroline is a certified educator, mom of three, hardcore scientist, and all-around nerd. She received a BA from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor and an MSc (Masters of Science) from University College London. Her career has included conserving desiccated organic materials (i.e. Egyptian mummies and native American artifacts) for museums (including the British Museum, Brooklyn Museum of Art, and the Museum of New Mexico) and archaeological sites around the world. As the field of robotics has taken off, Caroline has leveraged her unique experience in art and science to develop a unique K-12 robotics program. Through MTL robotics classes, she hopes to inspire and share the possibilities of science, humanities, and technology with students in our community. Registration is limited to 10 participants.
