Jon Mark Bolthouse, FdL Library Idea Studio

The Idea Studio has been 2 ½ years in the making. It is a place to do something. They have a kitchen to teach things like bread making once a month. There are two 3D printers, two sewing machines, comb binding machine and a serger for quilters. In addition, there is a recording studio, silhouette cutter, button maker and a laser. The laser is the only machine that requires staff assistance. If you are thirteen or older, you can attend a badging training session to qualify you for their functions. Breads of the World: Mexico is April 18th.  Every month the library has a program on the history of Fond du Lac. April 20th is the Children’s Home of Fond du Lac.
