World Usability Day - 3D Printing for Assistive Devices

Thursday, November 141:00—2:00 PMA.L.I.C.E. Makerspace #1Thomas Branigan Memorial Library200 E. Picacho Ave., Las Cruces, NM, 88001

Social Justice Reading Group recently read Disability Visibility by Alice Wong and was inspired to take action to help the disability community.

World Usability Day (November 14th) asks us to consider how things can be improved to create a better world for all. Designers can play a critical role in addressing these challenges by creating solutions that seek to improve the human condition and make the world more just.

Come view assorted 3-D printed assistive devices and our browse our library of files (free patents) that can help people with disabilities. Items can include aids to hold a pen, or open a can of soda, or make buckling a seatbelt easier.

Do you or someone you know have a need? We can help to find a free patent to assist you. We can then book you for time with the Makerspace 3-D printer to create your assistive device.
