Welcome to Adults With Hobbies!
WEEK FIVE: Join us in the Design Lab where we'll create solutions for fantastical characters, learn the basics of prototyping, design for disability, and map out local makerspaces and design resources.
Finding yourself too invested in capitalist survival and not invested enough in yourself and your community? Learn a new hobby at The Cambridge Foundry!
Each class will use a radical justice lens to present a brief history and current questions in the field at hand, followed by a hands-on activity where YOU are the MAKER. You will bring home something tangible from each class.
Throughout these weekly summer courses, you’ll learn about community organizations doing relevant work locally, and opportunities to get more involved in the hobbies you like. We’ll also read a book together over the summer, culminating in the final class and get-together, book club/potluck (optional).
Note: You don't have to attend all 8 weeks, but are very welcome to! You must sign up for each class individually.
All lessons have been planned with people with disabilities, queer folks, and BIPOC in mind. If you have a particular accessibility concern, PLEASE reach out! We can more than likely accommodate you.
