Teen Lab: Engineer Your Adventure (ages 12-17)

Do you often read a book and think, “That’s not what I would do”? Now is your chance to be in charge of the story! This 8-week lab is designed for teens ages 12-17 who enjoy fantasy roleplaying games. Join us as we follow Margueritte de Pruitt and her canine pal, Daisy, on a quest to save the world! They’ll need our engineering mindsets and problem-solving skills to collect magical artifacts, avoid danger, and win the final great battle!
