Join us at an upcoming event to learn more about the MakerLabs community.
Monthly Maker Meetup Night
If you’re just getting started in hobby making or starting your small business, meeting other creatives in a co-working setting can be intimidating. Who can you ask for help? Where are certain tools or amenities stored at MakerLabs? How do you begin to network and collaborate with others? What's the best way to kickstart your maker career? We're here to help smooth your transition into the culture. This monthly event is an opportunity to break the ice at MakerLabs, meet other beginners, and tour the facilities.
This event is open to members and non-members of MakerLabs.
Next Meet-Up: Tuesday, June 24th, 7-8:30 PM
Tools for Change Showcase
Join us for our monthly meet-up to see what the Tools for Change residents have been making, and learn about the residency.
Whether you're a seasoned maker or someone who has only made things in your head and have been too nervous to give it a go IRL, come by and meet other makers and dreamers. We will be having presentations from residents and a mix and mingle, for the opportunity to network with others in the community.
This event is open to everyone who wishes to support the residents and learn about the program.
Next Event: Wednesday, June 25th, 7-8:30PM
This event is free.
