Where are we?

We are located within the Ground Floor Coworking Space. Please enter through the main doors of the coworking space.

Do I need training before I start?

To use the space users MUST be qualified on the machinery they are using. Orientations and certification will take 30 minutes to an hour and a half depending on the equipment you want to learn how to use.

Do I need to book equipment?

Yes, you must either ask our admin support or our booking system to block off machines for your projects.

Can children use the Makerspace?

Children 10-18 can use the Makerspace UNDER GUARDIAN SUPERVISION. The youth will need a membership, and the guardian will require certification on equipment in order to supervise the youth.

Can I hire someone to make things for me?

Currently, no. We encourage people to come in and learn how to create their projects on their own. You gain a new skill AND get your end project.
