About this Event

Join us for the Cardboard Makers STEM Event, where students, families, and community members come together to design, build, and innovate with cardboard—fostering creativity, teamwork, and hands-on problem-solving for all ages in a fun, collaborative space!

Cardboard Creators: Build, Create, Engineer! is a hands-on STEM experience where creativity meets engineering using one of the most versatile materials—cardboard! Hosted at our Norristown Fluxspace Experience Center, this event invites students, educators, families, and makers of all ages to design, prototype, and build using real tools, including Chompsaws, Makedo kits, and more.

Participants will unleash their imaginations as they construct everything from functional prototypes to large-scale structures, all while learning about engineering principles, problem-solving, and hands-on making. With access to professional tools in a safe, guided environment, attendees will develop key STEM skills, collaborate on creative challenges, and experience the power of design thinking in action.

Whether you’re a first-time builder or a seasoned maker, Cardboard Innovators is the perfect place to explore, create, and engineer something amazing! 

All ages are welcome. Children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
