Amherst Middle School and Amherst Recreation Department are proud to announce a new program that utilizes AMS's newly rebranded 'Innovation and Design' wing, to be utilized for afterhours instructor led courses on most any topic that surrounding community members may be passionate about teaching or learning.
AMS is looking for passionate instructors to offer afterhours (M-F 3:30PM-10:00PM) courses on most any topic that community members would be willing to compensate, for attendance. These courses could be a single or multi-event class of which the instructor is in complete control of the subject matter and pricing.
AMS's new Innovation and Design wing currently features two state of the art computer labs, two Art focused classrooms and pottery kiln, a large fully outfitted Woodshop, and a Culinary Arts/Sewing classroom. They also have two new 3D printers, stained glass making supplies, and 24 self-contained Arduino microcontroller/electronics kits. Instructors can freely use AMS's resources but must provide their own supplies and consumables.
AMS's lab space can also be booked by local businesses for corporate training sessions and product demonstrations. Our facilities offer two computer labs with 27 computers each, a large auditorium with seating for 200, a PA system, Projector and 10ft screen. In addition, we have parking, Wifi, bathroom facilities and handicap access. (Please click on the "Maker Space Press Release" below for complete information).
