Blugold Makerspace Workshop: Electronics for Makers - Tree Ornament Planning Lab In-Person
Ever wanted to make something electronic but didn’t know where to start? Electronics for Makers is a hands-on workshop series where you’ll build real devices while gradually learning the electronics, programming, and troubleshooting skills behind them.
Each session stands on its own, so you can drop in for one workshop or come back all year and take on increasingly ambitious projects. No prior electronics/Arduino/programming experience is necessary.
Across the year, you’ll build things that glow, move, make music, sense the world, collect data, and communicate wirelessly. You’ll experiment with microcontrollers, sensors, motors, LEDs, audio, circuit boards, and more. Some projects will even become take-home devices you can keep. Free to attend and assemble circuits. Extra cost to take home your devices.
Open to all UWEC students, and individual faculty & staff. Groups of faculty & staff should contact us for pricing and scheduling. Please reach out to Dan Hillis, hillisdr@uwec.edu with any questions.
