Library: Brookwood Collaboratory Silhouette-Heat Press Drop In Host

Assist patrons who drop in to use the Silhouette digital Die Cutter and the Heat Press to do creative projects.  Hosts need proficiency in using both machines and the ability to provide guidance and troubleshooting to the patrons who have stopped in to use the equipment.  Hosts will help patrons navigate Silhouette Studio, prepare and cut vinyl designs, weed and position materials and then safely use the heat press.  You'll also answer beginner questions, troubleshoot simple project issues, monitor equipment use, and assist with setting up the area and cleaning up afterwards.  Because this is a drop in option, you may have one person, you may have three or four, and sometimes you might not have anyone.  When it's just you, you have the opportunity to create something of your own.  Often when you are working on your own project, patrons will inquire, giving you the chance to engage them in trying something on their own.  Edgar will provide, (by arrangement) training to prepare you to faciliate these sessions, and make sure you understand using the Studio platform and the equipment.
