The Makr Lab

Curious about electronics but not sure where to start? This beginner-friendly workshop is the perfect introduction to soldering! You’ll learn the fundamentals of through-hole soldering, proper tool handling, and basic electronic components while assembling your own interactive circuit board.

Along the way, you’ll discover what a capacitor is, how it stores and releases energy, and see its behavior demonstrated right on the board you build. No prior experience is required—we’ll guide you through every step.

At the end of the workshop, you’ll take home your completed soldered project, along with new skills and a better understanding of one of the most common components found in electronic circuits.

Perfect for: Ages 12+ (younger makers with an accompanying adult are welcome) • No experience required • All materials included.
