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.
