Members of the UWin 3D Print Club are churning out the trilliums. They plan to give out 2,500 models of the provincial flower at the Ontario150 hub during Open Streets Windsor on Sunday, September 17.

“This is a perfect opportunity to spread awareness of 3D printing as well as to promote our club,” says founder Nicolas de Cosson (MFA 2013). “We will have a booth set up to act as a space for 3D printing demonstrations and public engagement with the process. When people stop to watch, they’ll see the printing happening, and someone will get one fresh off the printer!”

Open Streets will close an eight-kilometre stretch of city streets to vehicles Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Activity hubs will feature displays and hands-on learning opportunities. The Ontario 150 hub is at the intersection of University and Bruce avenues; other UWindsor organizations will set up on University Avenue at Patricia Road.
