MakeShift is a community space for makers and D.I.Y-ers of all ages! Proud to be Check out our current list of tools!

MakeShift @ Turbine Flats will be a space that serves as a community gathering point for makers, tinkerers and D.I.Y-ers. We will explore and create intersections between technology, science, art, and culture. It is crucial that these experiences are interest-driven and hands-on. We intend to promote the act of making through exhibitions, projects, workshops, and other public activities. A makerspace, tool & book library, workshop space, classrooms, computer labs will allow for people to gather and cross-pollinate in ideas and knowledge. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6MvbJrDWH0XNURvak42Wi1hckU/view?usp=sharing
