Celebrate the opening of the Mississippi Mills Library’s Makerspace

We are excited to invite you to the grand opening of the Makerspace at the Pakenham branch (128 MacFarlane St). A Makerspace is a creative lab where you can explore new technologies, tools, and equipment to bring your own ideas to life.

The Makerspace is equipped with an xTool laser engraver/cutter, a heat press, a Cricut Maker 3 cutting machine, and a button maker. It is open to all residents with a valid library card. Training sessions, workshops, and open time, when you can work on your own projects, are all offered at the Makerspace. (A first, mandatory, training is required to use the Makerspace for your own projects.) 

Grand opening event details:
• Date: 1 April
• Time: 4 – 7 PM (drop in anytime)
• Location: Pakenham Branch, 128 MacFarlane St. 

Special highlights:
• Ribbon cutting ceremony to officially open the Makerspace
• Demonstrations of Makerspace equipment
• Refreshments

Learn all about the Makerspace, enjoy some refreshments, watch exciting demonstrations, and get inspired to start creating! And don’t worry—this is not an April Fools’ Day joke!
We hope to see you here!

This space would not have been possible without the generous financial support of local residents, Maureen and David Dern, as well as the expertise and encouragement of Paddye Mann Clothing and the dedicated members of the Pakenham community.
