Learn, create and innovate at the Racine Public Library’s Innovation Lab. Stop by for our classes and open lab hours to learn various tech skills, from using a computer to 3D printing.

 

Everything in the Lab is free for community members of all ages to use. A library card is not required.

 

Innovation Lab Hours:

Outside of open hours, try requesting a 3D print or engraving to pick up, book a recording session, or ask about our tech help appointments.
