Did You Make Something Today?Let’s Get Making!
Our makerspace was designed for all sorts of making. Whether you are interested in 3D design, crafts, electronics, or fashion, we have the tools & staff to turn ideas into reality.
Our staff will help you get started on your projects, be there for advice along the way, and train you on all the equipment our makerspace offers.
Projects, Passion, Play, and Peers
We believe in the 4 P’s: Projects, Passion, Play and Peers. Build things that matter to you. Experiment without worrying about breaking something. Help other makers on their projects. Most of all, just have fun.

Here are some activities you can do in our makerspace

- Use our airbrush booth to make custom designed clothing
- Make electronic circuits at our fully-stocked electronics desk
- Work on school projects using all sorts of craft, wood, metal, and “random” materials
- Fix stuff. Maybe a pair of headphones that cracked or that jewelry that needs to be re-soldered together
