Have an idea for a game element that's difficult to make? Laser cut it! Learn how to design specialty parts and decorations for the laser cutter. Grades 5-8. Registration Required.
Just like the name sounds, a laser cutter cuts materials using a laser. You can make very detailed and precise cuts that you couldn't do by hand. We will learn how to design parts and then cut them out on a laser cutter. Grades 5-8. Registration required.

Cardboard Carnival is a partnership between the Evanston Public Library and EvanSTEM.
Funding provided by the Illinois State Library - Project Next Generation Grant.
Evanston Public Library, District 65, and our partners are committed to creating safe and welcoming spaces, programs, and services for all Evanston youth. Just like Evanston youth, the staff who work on the Citywide STEM challenges come from a variety of races, cultures, experiences, sexual orientation, and gender identities. By being intentional with our staffing and program structure we hope that youth see themselves reflected and feel supported when they take part.
The City of Evanston is committed to promoting a Citywide culture of accessibility and inclusivity. To request an accommodation for a program, service, or activity, please call 847-866-2919 to make an ADA service request or fill out a request form online.
