Program Description

Event Details

Come explore the Cricut machines or bring in a Cricut project you’ve been meaning to make. Machines can cut vinyl, paper, or fabric, and can engrave thin acrylic sheets. Please bring your own supplies for personal projects; patrons new to Cricuts may use a limited quantity of vinyl and paper from the Makerspace bins to try out the machines.

What is a Cricut?

The Cricut is an electronic cutting machine which can be used to cut various materials such as cardstock, vinyl, fabric, felt, and more. Designs are created on a computer using the Cricut Design Space software and then sent to the Cricut machine to cut the design. The crafting possibilities are endless when using a Cricut!

Users of a Cricut machine should be comfortable operating a laptop computer and have a general understanding of basic computer software.
