SUMMARY:Concord’s Monumental (Re)Make
DESCRIPTION:October 15 @ 1:00 PM\n\n\nCelebrate the 250th birthday of the battles of Concord and Lexington by helping us recreate Daniel Chester French’s iconic statue The Minute Man through collaborative 3D printing! \nWhat is this?\nThe Workshop is collaborating with local artist and author Dr. Linda Booth Sweeney to reimagine and reproduce a scale model of Daniel Chester French’s iconic statue The Minute Man through a collaborative 3D printing process! There are two ways to participate: \n#1 Print a Part.\nMakers of all ages are invited to visit the Workshop any time during regular Open Maker Hours to 3D print a part (or several!) of The Minute Man! Just follow the instructions to reserve a 3D printer and ask for a design file when you arrive! The Minute Man is a great project for beginners\, but if you’re new to our machines\, we strongly recommend reviewing our instructional materials before your visit \n#2 Build Together.\nMakers of all ages can also attend one of our interactive building sessions throughout the year to learn more about The Minute Man and 3D modeling and printing from Workshop staff and local artist and author Dr. Linda Booth Sweeney\, while assembling the pieces printed by our neighbors! Find upcoming sessions on the Workshop Calendar! \nWhere will the final project be displayed?\nNo matter how you choose to participate\, all contributors will have the opportunity to add their name to our makers record to be displayed alongside the completed project at the Library in 2025. \nIsn’t that a lot of plastic?\nYes\, it is! As a Certified Sustainable Library\, we take the environmental impact of a project like this very seriously. All components of the (Re)Make will be composed of PLA\, a vegetable-based plastic. The Library has secured a speciality recycling vendor to process the statue and any waste materials in the event that the statue must be disposed of. \nMy school/company/non-profit organization has a 3D printer – can we help?\nYes! Just complete our (Re)Make Partnership Interest Form\, and our staff will be happy to reach out with more information.

SUMMARY:CONCORD250 Table at AG Day
DESCRIPTION:Look for the Concord250 Table at AG Day on Saturday\, September 7\, 10am-2pm. \nConcord250 ceramics from Newbury Court Potters will be for sale to benefit Concord Carlisle Foundation. \n  \n     \nWhy are there sheep at Ag Day in Concord? Sheep are part of The Concord 250th plan\, which celebrates this momentous year by adding “history” to every event. Join spinners and sheep on the grounds of the Wright Tavern on Saturday\, September 7\, from 10 to 2.  We will honor the vital role of women leading up to the American Revolution.  Following the Sugar Act\, the Stamp Act\, and the Townsend Act\,  women in the American colonies formed the Daughters of Liberty to support a boycott of goods arriving from England.  The Daughters opposed drinking British-imported tea and purchasing imported fabrics.  They wove and wore homespun clothes and held public events\, “Spinning Bees” to teach other women how to spin thread from flax and wool.  They melted metal for bullets and sewed uniforms for the American militia.\n  \nDuring Ag Day\, spinners will demonstrate their craft near Main Street beside the Wright Tavern. Kids may feed the sheep from Lucky Lane Farm in Lincoln. *These sheep are the smallest breed in America (Ouessant) and are sweet to see no matter what your age!\n
