Staunton Makerspace

A makerspace is a place where people come together to design and build projects, with play, innovation, exploration and creativity.

“Makerspaces typically provide access to materials, tools, and technologies to allow for hands-on exploration and participatory learning. They are occasionally referred to as fablabs, hackerspaces or tech shops.” — oedb.org/ilibrarian/a-librarians-guide-to-makerspaces/I tend of think of MakerSpaces are modern libraries where you can get hands-on access to technology that is not widely available, such as 3D printers and Computer controlled Routers. It’s also a place to get access to people with real expertise in electonics, manufacturing, art, and programming. A delightful collision of skills and expertise that could help us experiment successfully.We are working to establish (and would welcome contact from) local educational groups and organizations. We hope to establish a location in Downtown Staunton.
