Digital Paper Crafts at Guildford Library 27 January 10.00am-12.30pm

Save and bring your Christmas cards, and learn how to use our digital paper cutter to turn them into many new things, including crowns, baubles and cards. .

An additional draw, on the same day in the library: "Trotec Laser will bring the Speedy 100 CO2 laser cutter to the event. It has a 600 x 300 mm working area and is capable of cutting or engraving intricate designs on almost any organic material including card, paper, plastics (not PVC), glass and stone. The easy-to-use JobControl software simplifies the process of sending designs which have been created in CorelDraw, or imported from other CAD or DTP software, directly to the laser machine. Visitors to the event can see what's possible when processing paper and other organic materials with a Trotec laser cutter, and will even have the opportunity to bring along their own ideas to try on the Speedy 100."

Cost £3. Please go to https://digitalpapercrafts.eventbrite.co.uk to book a place.

British Science Week..end!

I t might be Friday but there’s still plenty of time to celebrate British Science Week, with events and activities planned across the country this weekend. Guildford has a proud history as a hub of science and technology, with the world-class Research Park hosting some incredible pioneering companies. These include the games company 22Cans started by Peter Molyneux - founder of Lionhead Studios, which went on to be bought by Microsoft and produce the popular Fable games. Surrey Satellite Technology , defence contractor BAE systems , industrial gasses supplier BOC and mobile developer Volantis are other examples of the great mix of scientific minds that call Guildford home. Check out the official British Science Week events map to see what’s on in your area, and use the hashtag #BSW17 to share the fun online! Above: British Science Week events being held nearby
