What is a Makerspace?

Channel Your Inner Superhero, Experiment like a Rocket Scientist, and Create Art from Your Favorite Fandoms

A makerspace is a place where youth and adults engage in the process of making using both high and low-tech tools and materials, ranging from cardboard to 3D printers.

Come Create With Us!

Our drop-in making activities allow guests to create, problem solve, develop skills, and learn principles of science, engineering, technology, arts, and math in a creative, project based, hands-on setting. Activities are designed to encourage fans of all ages to explore, design, experiment, and build.

Children & Youth must be accompanied by an adult (18+).
