"The Tinkering Workshop" at Mechanical Makerspace

  • Mechanical Making Space - Cabaret Mechanical Theatre Unit 1, Rock House The Alley Claremont Hastings TN34 1DT United Kingdom (map)

Visit us in Hastings for a Giant Linkage Party to celebrate the release of The Tinkering Workshop. Join author Ryan Jenkins and team CMT for a fun afternoon experimenting with linkages.

The Tinkering Workshop book can help kids, parents and educators get ideas for building their own automata and also make connections to other topics along the way like sound machines, electrical circuits, wind powered mechanisms and more. Each one of the materials explorations and activity prompts builds on practices of asking questions, prototyping, troubleshooting and taking part in a larger conversation with other makers, all ideas that should be familiar to all automata makers. Check out the book and join Ryan at the Mechanical Making Space in Hastings for a really fun hands-on workshop, book signing and discussion as part of the UK book tour on Saturday March 8th.

This is a free drop in event. Join us at any time during the afternoon and please book a free ticket to make sure we have enough supplies for everyone!
