The Makerspace

Learn. Share. Create.

The Makerspace provides access to a wide range of tools and resources for making, DIY,

 and innovation. The idea behind makerspaces is simple: they are places where people come together to learn about technology, crafts and other kinds of making; to share knowledge and skills with others; and to create things by applying this knowledge.
