The Makerspace:

Your Space to Make

 
We are the Makerspace.
We're here to help bring to life your project ideas.

Whether that's a simple handicraft or an elaborate 3D-printed design, we're equipped with a variety of tools,  technologies, and resources to facilitate your making.

 

So, bring along your project ideas and get to work in our expansive creative workspaces. Or, come with curiosity and take a peek at what others in your community are creating.

 
How it works

No matter what, we guarantee you'll leave with something great -

A cool project born from the seed of an idea,

A comfortability with technology,

A feeling of inspiration,

A renewed love for crafting,

Or an excitement for making.

So, roll up your sleeves and get your creative juices flowing.

Your ideas are welcome here!
 

What We Believe

 

There are three words we live by: 

Create: We believe in empowering individuals to unleash their creativity and bring their ideas to life through hands-on making and innovation.

 

Learn: We foster a culture of lifelong learning, where exploration is encouraged at every turn.

 

Share: We believe in sharing our knowledge, experiences, and ideas to inspire others to create a positive community of learning.

We are all makers, so let's get to making.
