Fab Academy 2021 - it’s a wrap!
Fab Academy 2021 is a wrap! From January until May, eight students have been working with FabLab tutor Henk Buursen at Waag’s Fab Academy Amsterdam. They proudly present their work. Go to fablab.waag.org for more info on Fab Academy Amsterdam.

Fab Academy runs in more than 70 Fab Labs, for more than 250 students per year in the largest campus of the world. At the Academy, students learn rapid-prototyping and working with digital tools by planning and executing a new project each week, resulting in a personal portfolio of technical accomplishments. At fabacademy.org, you’ll find general info on the international movement.
