All workshop materials are supplied, although they remain the property of UNCC.
If participants wish to create their very own Eyewriter, however, they are certainly encouraged to bring materials and build their own!
Below is a shopping list and some links for materials used in creating an Eyewriter. The links are there to help you identify the items, but you can certainly find cheaper sources with a little hunting. In fact, if participants prefer, they are encouraged to be creative in substituting materials.
On-line instructions for creating and using an Eyewriter can be found here. http://www.eyewriter.org/diy/
