City of Las Cruces is excited to partner with Cruces Creatives as part of a Creative Industries grant. This class will introduce the basics of digital manipulation and design as it relates to using the GlowForge laser cutter/engraver. Students will have the opportunity to produce their own small item (key chain, backpack charm, etc.) as they learn how to scale, etch and cut.

Emphasis will be on students being able to navigate the digital functions so they will be able to return to the library to create their own pieces independently.

All supplies will be provided. 

While this class assumes an adult audience, youth 11 years and older may participate with their guardian.

 Ask ALICE: Art Smarter, Not Harder initiative is made possible through generous grant funding from the New Mexico Creative Industries Department. Spearheaded by the City of Las Cruces Quality of Life Department and Economic Development Department, this program is a testament to our shared commitment to fostering artistic growth and innovation in the community.
