What we’re about
Calling all makers! We're a membership-based makerspace in Interbay and we're hosting meetups for makers who love to, well, make things!
Our meetups are for tech nerds who want to talk shop, hobbyists who want to build that idea that's been keeping them up at night, cosplay enthusiasts who want to stitch their dreams into existence, and anyone who loves to DIY.
We'll be hosting events around holiday themes, specific types of technology or materials, and much more. Come make in a fun and easy-going environment where failure is embraced and exploration is the norm.
