 +==== Summer 2025 - Current | Future Makers Workshop ====
 +
 +Innovation Workshop and Los Ingenieros are partnering to host a hands-on program for local elementary and middle school students from underrepresented communities in science and technology. Participants will design their own custom trading card while learning to use tools such as the laser cutter, 3D printer, and CNC paper cutter.

 +===Spring 2025 | UV-Blocking Incubator Shroud ===
 +
 +This project involved designing and fabricating a custom UV-blocking shroud for a moving sample incubator used at the NSF ExFAB Biofoundry at UCSB. The project was intended to reduce UV exposure to light-sensitive samples while maintaining accessibility and compatibility with the different sample rack systems.The shroud was designed in CAD and manufactured using ASA through 3D printing to provide durability and resistance to the incubator environment and UV light.

 +==== Fall 2024 - Current | Collaboration with UCSB's Art, Design, & Architecture Museum ====
 +
 +The ADA Museum at UCSB has acquired two models created by architect Kendrick Kellogg. We are collaborating with them to create 3D printed copies of the models. 
 +
 +The two models we are helping with are of the Hoshino Wedding Chapel in Japan (pictured on the left) and the Doolittle House in Joshua Tree, California (pictured on the right).
