We want to hear from you!
Just like a regular book library, we offer items that you can borrow at a small administrative cost.
Having ideas, plans, and even tools does not guarantee that things will work out.
That is why we offer workshops!
We can’t do this without you and would love to hear your feedback!

Your ideas help us plan and prepare a wide variety of workshops for you to enjoy!
