The Make Space
Makerspaces and hackerspaces, including The Make Space of Centre County, are social hubs where like-minded individuals can gather to collaborate, socialize, and pursue their creative passions. Our community is diverse and our potential for innovation is limitless. Our mission is to support makers in bringing their ideas to life. We offer access to a range of tools, fabrication equipment, and resources, including salvaged, donated, and recycled materials, to fuel your projects, inventions, creations, and explorations. Whether you’re a seasoned maker or a beginner, we strive to provide the knowledge and support you need to bring your vision to reality. Our ultimate goal is to help you unleash your creativity and achieve your full potential as a maker.
