Gears will be turning for students in our Minni BotShop workshop, geared to offer an approachable exploration of engineering and mechanics. Workshop instructor Eugene will guide participants through the process of designing and constructing their own robots, using a range of recycled materials including wood and rope. Participants will be anything but on autopilot as this program gets the creative wheels whirring.
