Stop by Ignite Studio in Fishers or Ignite Maker Lab in Noblesville during November and December to work on a donation for people (or furry friends) in the community during this Season of Giving. Between the hours of 5-7pm on Tuesdays (at Ignite Studio) or 10am-12pm on Saturdays (at both locations), staff will be available to offer guidance and have materials out for use. Otherwise, ask at the desk for materials (while supplies last) and/or check out the corresponding kit or equipment to create on your own. Leave or drop off what you’ve made in the Studio or the Lab, and we will ensure it gets delivered.
