Kinetic Mobile Sculpture Workshop with Laura Kohler

Laura Kohler is the head of Design and Technology at St John’s College School, Cambridgeand recently ran an AccessArt workshop for teachers. Many thanks to St John’s College School for hosting the workshop.

Laura works with children aged 4 to 13 and encourages, even the youngest, fledgling inventors, to learn through making and get to grips with using tools, processes, and thinking 3D.
