Ages 12 and up recommended (although this is not a strict limit), no biology background necessary. <br /><br />Register/pay for this class online at http://makerspace.ca/joinmakerspace/class-signup/<br /><br />About Victoria Makerspace<br /><br />Makerspace is a member-operated, shared space where people can come together and collaborate while sharing tools, resources and knowledge. One tool can be effectively duplicated many times over by sharing it, in the same way that someone&rsquo;s learning experiences may be shared. <br /><br />Non-members can take any class available on our website. It&rsquo;s a good way to try out some of the equipment or check out new technology. If you want to spend more time on the machine after the class, you can come by to one of our Tuesday evening open house events (Tuesday evenings from 7 to 9 pm) or sign up for a membership.</p>
