STATE OF THE ARTS - Fab Lab El Paso

The El Paso Children’s Museum and Science Center is partnering with the grassroots not-for-profit Fab Lab El Paso.  Fab Lab will play a key role in bringing the museum’s "Challenge It" zone to life. 

The "Challenge It" zone is designed to encourage visitors to explore a variety of engineering experiences, from designing and testing cars and boats to coding a giant LED cube. It will also include open-ended makerspace activities. Fab Lab’s mills and 3D printers will be used for small product design and problem solving through engineering. Additionally, Fab Lab will be fabricating some of the small furnishings within the Challenge It exhibit.
