Spazio Chirale launches its territorial activities at the new Frezzotti Corradini FabLab in Latina with a free course, open to all adults aged 15 and over, on the iconic technology of the maker movement: 3D Printing.

A few weeks ago, Spazio Chirale, Roma Makers and the I.C. Frezzotti Corradini inaugurated in Latina the new Fab Lab that will be an integral part of the services offered to the territory by one of the schools of excellence of the Italian State.

On Wednesday 16 May the activity opens to the whole territory with an introductory course on the most representative technology of the maker world: 3D Printing.

The course is free and is open to all adults and to young people aged 15 and over. The topics covered will be the fundamentals of 3D printing technologies and additive manufacturing.
