Build a paper circuit, add an LED and make a card that lights up.
About this Event

In this workshop you'll learn how to build a simple paper circuit and use it to make a card that lights up. We'll start by building and testing the circuit together. From there you'll make an artwork inspired by light, designing around your LED so it becomes part of the piece.


In this workshop you'll:

  • Learn how a simple paper circuit works
  • Build and test your own circuit with an LED light
  • Design and create an artwork for your card around your light
  • Leave with a finished card that lights up


No experience needed — everything is provided. Adults only.
