Calling Brighton makers! We're helping out with this workshop for makers taking place at Build Brighton on 14th September. Come along if you fancy sharing ideas about making – all while making(!)

We'll be using Lego and simple craft materials to explore ideas about what making can be, and why we do it. It will be fun, and we're providing free pizza too!
