Recycled Robots Workshop

Calling all builders, tinkerers, and curious creators! In Recycled Robots, artists will design, build, and bring to life their own robot creations using recycled materials, cardboard, and loose parts. This four-week workshop blends engineering, imagination, and hands-on construction—perfect for kids who love to build, problem-solve, and think in 3D. Each week, builders will explore a new construction challenge as they create robot bodies, moving parts, and imaginative features. Projects may include robot vehicles, cardboard structures, bridges and towers, marble runs, and a painted robot city where their creations live and interact. Emphasis is placed on planning, trial and error, and creative problem-solving—no templates, no rushing. This workshop celebrates process over product and gives children the confidence to experiment, adapt, and proudly say, “I built this.”
