About the event

Once a month, tweens and teens take over the MakerLab for LEGO chaos. Wild themes. Weird prompts. Timed builds. Robot races. You bring the creativity, we bring the bricks.

Win the monthly challenge, wow the judges, and you could win a full LEGO set!

Build big. Build weird. Build to win.

We will meet on the last Monday of every month, starting at 5PM on the 1st floor Makerlab.

This program was made possible through a generous donation from the Friends of Durham Library.

Una vez al mes, preadolescentes y adolescentes toman el control del MakerLab para un caos total de LEGO. Temas salvajes. Retos rarísimos. Construcciones contra el reloj. Carreras de robots. Tú traes la creatividad, nosotros ponemos los bloques.

¡Gana el reto mensual, sorprende a los jueces y podrías llevarte un set completo de LEGO!

Construye en grande. Construye raro. Construye para ganar.

Nos reuniremos el último lunes de cada mes, comenzando a las 5:00 PM en el MakerLab del 1er piso.

Este programa fue posible gracias a una generosa donación de Friends of Durham Library.
