During the Open House, the Eureka Factory will be working on The Deconstruction, a 48 hour creative competition that challenges participants to rethink the world around them by creating something new from existing objects, genres, and ideas. The goal of the Deconstruction is “to make the world a slightly awesomer-er place,” and the Eureka Factory believes that’s exactly what the Hive can do, a fitting crowning achievement for the library’s centennial.
