Every third Thursday of the month we gather to explore different crafts, share ideas, and enjoy a relaxing craft to unwind, meet new people, and create something special. We’re bringing people together to co-create a large, intricate coloring page. It’s a wonderful way to de-stress, socialize, and make new friends while adding your personal touch to shared masterpieces. Come color with us!

Patch those holes in your favorite clothes and get ready for Halloween! Repair your ripped jeans, replace those shirt buttons, or craft your own Halloween costume! Join our volunteer menders in the Makerspace for hands-on help with your clothing items or costume projects. We'll provide sewing machines, thread, and some fabric. Please bring the clothing you want to repair, any patches, specific colors of thread, buttons for your project, and/or materials for your Halloween costume. Mending and costume crafting are fun ways to save money, express creativity, and help the environment. For parking information visit http://maps.msu.edu/interactive.
