Make your own instrument

Are you curious about electronics but don’t know where to start?

Have you ever wanted to learn to solder but never had the opportunity?

Are you a musician looking to take up a new instrument?

If you answered YES to any of the above questions, we have the perfect solution: our 2 hour DIY Instrument Workshop!

We will be soldering our own funky instruments and attempt to play a tune by the end of the session.
