In this one-week camp participants will explore various ways to design and make objects. This introduction to fabrication involves using design software, solving design problems, and learning about fabrication tools such as 3D printers, laser cutters, and CNC routers.  These concepts will be applied in a hands-on format in the form of design challenges throughout the week.

During camp mornings, students use 3D printing, laser cutting, and large-format printing to design their own board games. In the afternoons, students complete design thinking challenges led by design thinking fellows. 

This camp is intended for rising 4th to 9th graders. All fabrication camps are at the NOVA Manassas Campus. Organizers are offering transportation to Manassas from NOVA Woodbridge and Alexandria Campuses.
