Meet Drew (he/him) our woodturning instructor helping Asmbly members turn a block of wood into something they’re genuinely proud to take home. 🪵

For Drew, making is proof that everything is figure-outable, especially when you have the tools, space, and a community willing to help you get there.

There’s something really good about watching an idea slowly become a thing you can hold.

A little messy, rarely perfect, and always worth making. 💛

Our young makers have spent the summer learning new skills, trying new things, and turning their ideas into projects they can actually hold up and say, “I made this.” 🥹🛠️

Now it’s time to celebrate them.

Join us for the Young Makers Club Showcase on August 29 for an afternoon of projects, live interactive demos, a board game party, family-friendly activities, raffle prizes, free food, and a whole lot of proud maker moments. 💛

📅 August 29 | 12–3 PM
📍 Asmbly Makerspace

We can’t wait to see what they’ve made!

Just a casual day turning blocks of wood into bowls. 🪵😌

A look inside our Wood Turning: Bowls class, where beginners got on the lathe, learned the tools, made a LOT of shavings, and slowly watched their bowls take shape.

Back-to-school season looks a little different at Asmbly. 🛠️💛

This summer, our Young Makers have been learning how to turn ideas into real projects, try new techniques, work through mistakes, and share what they’ve created with confidence.

Now it’s time to celebrate everything they’ve made!

Join us for the Young Makers Club Showcase on August 29 for an afternoon of projects, live interactive demos, a board game party, family-friendly activities, raffle prizes, and free food.

Have you been looking for a creative space to make your next project and build community? Come for the tools. Stay for everything that happens around them 💛

The projects, the people who help when you get stuck, the skills you never thought you'd learn, and that very specific joy of getting to say, “I made that.”

Whether you’ve been making for years or have absolutely no idea where to start, there’s room for you here.

Come make with us at Asmbly. 🛠️

Turns out, putting your own design on practically everything is a skill you can learn. 🧵👀

Our Machine Embroidery class gives you hands-on learning with our Brother embroidery machines, from threading and hooping to choosing the right fabrics and stabilizers. You'll try patch making, direct-to-garment stitching, and the little finishing details that make everything look *really* good.

Basically: bring the ideas, we'll teach you how to stitch them.

Check out our Events page for upcoming classes!

A little throwback while Austin gears up for another month of Pride celebrations. 🌈

We had such a fun time at the Pease Park Pride Picnic hosted by and , making buttons, meeting so many wonderful people, and sharing a little bit of Asmbly with the community.

Shoutout to , , .go.lucky and , and to everyone who stopped by our booth. 💛

Here’s to more spaces where everyone feels welcome to show up, create, and be themselves. Happy Pride, Austin!

What happens when words like acorn, dandelion, ivy, beaver, and newt start disappearing from childhood?

Asmbly member Danny Martin explores that question through Recovering the Lost Words, an exhibit inspired by words from the natural world that have been removed from the Oxford Junior Dictionary in recent years. 🌱

"This exhibit is an opportunity for people to consider what we might be losing and to reconnect with these "lost words."

We love seeing what happens when our members combine different tools, skills, and ideas to make something entirely their own!

"I'm grateful to Asmbly for making so many creative tools accessible, and even more grateful for the training and community knowledge to use them skillfully. Like a true ecosystem, everyone here contributes something different, and the whole space feels stronger because of it."

Thank you Danny for sharing your project with us!
