We conduct and facilitate workshops and outreach programs with our extended partners including museums, university programs such as GERI, and libraries. We help children learn science and engineering through designing, making and playing with toys. C Design labs focusses on toy design as a way to have both fun and also learn engineering through experiencing basic concepts in physics. Various forms of prototyping to design and make including 3D printing, laser cutting, and use of everyday materials are emphasized. We also regularly conduct sketch makers workshops.
