Mission Viejo Announces 'Teen Pop-Up MakerSpace'

The Mission Viejo Library welcomes teens to channel their 'inner MacGyver' on January 16.

From the City of Mission Viejo: If you’re a teenager, ponder the following: What would you do if you were trapped in the dark with only paper, a graphite pencil, 9-volt battery and an LED in your pockets?

Find out on January 16 when we channel your inner MacGyver and show you how those elements can become a functional flashlight. Drop by the Mission Viejo Library’s Heritage Room any time between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. for this free event that caters to teens age 13-17.

This fun series is possible thanks to a grant from the California State Library.
