Portage District Library Maker-in-Residence

Honored to announce that I am chosen to be the Portage District Library’s maker-in-residence for February and March 2026

Maker-in-Residence Drop-in Hours

Anna will work with patrons to create a “molecular self-portrait” out of recycled materials; choosing “elements” and colors that represent what you bring as unique building blocks to our Portage and Southwest Michigan community.

Visit Anna in our Makerspace on the main level during scheduled drop-in hours to participate in our community project

Maker-in-Residence Workshops

In addition to the Molecules: Portrait of a Community project, Anna will also lead two Maker-in-Residence Workshops. Seating is limited. Registration is required.
