Intro to 3D Modelling: Print a Plant Pot

Over 90 minutes, you’ll learn the basics of 3D modeling, build your own vessel design, and submit it to print right here at STEAM on Wheels. Your finished pot will be ready for pickup the following business week, just in time to pot something you love.
This workshop runs on a sliding scale. The lowest recommended contribution is $5 to cover payment processing fees, but give what you can. Those who contribute more make it possible for others to attend who might not otherwise be able to and that’s kind of the whole point.
Due to device availability, class size is limited to 10. See you there!
6-7:30pm, Friday April 24th @ Steam on Wheels, Ages 21+
Light refreshments will be provided, but BYOB to keep the creativity flowing if you wish 😀
This workshop is part of the Translating Nature: Environmental Arts Series, made possible in part by Quad City Arts!
