Join us for our June Parachute Build and Open House!
This month, participants will design and create their very own mini parachute. Choose a parachuter figurine, attach it to your parachute, and then test your creation by releasing it into the big, wild sky! It’s a hands-on way to explore physics, creativity, and fun all at once.
Everyone’s invited to join the fun! This project also counts as a Junior Maker activity, designed to welcome young creators (with adult supervision) into the world of making.
Drop in anytime between 5:00 PM and 7:30 PM to build your parachute, tour our 23,000-square-foot makerspace, and discover what we’re all about.
Entry donations of $3 per participant are greatly appreciated — and always met with a smile.
Many thanks to the Greater Lynchburg Community Foundation for their support in making this educational event possible!
