We are a federally recognized 501c3 non-profit organization working towards establishing a maker space within the Tri-Cities, Washington area. We run on 100% volunteer power! Confluent provides a place where innovation and ideas are encouraged, and collaboration is a holler away. The goal of Confluent Space is to facilitate

the education and growth of artists, inventors, technologists, and hobbyists by providing the space, tools, safety and education to enable the creation of art, technology, business, culture, and community. Confluent currently hosts a fully outfitted woodworking shop, metal-smithing shop, electronics lab, art studio, pottery studio, classrooms, and a gallery curated by Drew Boy Creative! "Under the blazing sun by the blue rivers, we find the fun in failure, relish in our accomplishments, and enjoy the courage in collaboration. We are inventors and artists; tech-makers and teachers. We are the loud and learning; the visionary and valuable. We are the creators at Confluent." Core Values
1) Make it awesome, for everybody.
2) Embrace the visionary by enabling the cycle, Imagine-Make-Learn
3) Empower the community by striving towards complete accessibility and sustainability
4) Default to transparency, consensus, and inclusivity
5) Be humble and have as much fun as possible

Life’s short. We’re all in this together. Let’s increase the quality of life for those around us and have some fun along the way. Good things lie ahead.

I’m thrilled to share some exciting news about the welding classes that Confluent will be offering this August. There are three unique sessions scheduled throughout the month: August 1st, August 8th, and August 22nd, each designed to provide a fresh learning experience and cater to a variety of interests and skill levels.

The first session, held on August 1st, will dive into MIG welding techniques. This class is perfect for anyone interested in hands-on guidance and learning the fundamentals of MIG welding. On August 8th, we’ll shift the focus to TIG welding, which is known for its precision and versatility—this session will give you the opportunity to practice and refine your TIG skills under expert instruction.

To wrap up the month, we’re offering a special “make and take” class on August 22nd. Building on the TIG class, participants will get the chance to create their own metal cell phone holder and take it home—a practical and fun project that’s sure to be a highlight. Please note that participation in the TIG class is required for the “make and take” session.

Each class is priced at $65, and you’re welcome to sign up for just one or all three, depending on your interests and schedule. For full details and to register, please visit our Square site using the link below.

I hope you’ll consider joining us for these engaging and hands-on sessions! If you have any questions or need more information, feel free to reach out.
