Are you curious about 3D printing? Have you ever wondered how to incorporate 3D design into everyday life and classroom projects?

Starting March 17, UT students, faculty, and staff are invited to Pendergrass Library every third Thursday of the month from 2-3 p.m. for “Make Break” – an interactive tour and demonstration of the library’s makerspace and 3D printing technology.

Make Break participants will:

  • See the library’s two 3D printers
  • View sample projects and discover classroom applications
  • Explore software options for 3D design
  • Learn about the process for printing a 3D object

Participants will also be entered into a raffle for a free 3D print of up to $25 value. Raffle winners will be announced at the end of the semester and receive a consultation on choosing or designing their 3D object.

To register for Make Break, email Richard Sexton at jsexton3@utk.edu. If you are teaching a class that might incorporate a 3D printing, cameras, or other technology, contact us so we can work with you.
