Ready to turn your designs into woodcuts? In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the basics of Adobe Illustrator to create the vector artwork files you need to create functional and beautiful 3D objects using a laser cutter. We will also cover how the laser cutter will read your vector artwork so you can design with the end in mind. 

The Adobe Illustrator for Laser Cutter workshop will be at the Undergraduate Library, Room 124, on Wednesday, October 9, 2019 from 10-11am.
