Maker Space
What is the maker space?
This is a space to make art, meet other artists, instigate collaborative art projects, work quietly by yourself, or just sit and relax. While the space is small, there are various work spaces, a comfy sitting area with tea, zines and books, a computer, industrial sewing machine, regular sewing machines, typewriters, and all sorts of different art supplies. We prioritized used/repurposed materials and equipment. Supplies vary as they get used and as we acquire 'new' ones through either donation or purchase. This means we won't have the same supplies all the time. Some supplies and equipment will be available to check out and take home for a time period.
-
The maker space is located inside of Eco Thrift (314 N Howes St.) in the back by the tool section.
-
ANYONE can attend our weekly evening "community art hours" and make art with us! There will be a collective member present to show you the space and answer questions. However, please check our community calendar because some evenings we have classes that require RSVPS.
MEMBERS can access this space and all its supplies and equipment during any Eco Thrift open store hours (Tuesday-Saturday 10 am- 6 pm) as well as during weekly community art hours that fall outside of Eco Thrift's hours.

If you are able, we do ask you make a financial donation or help around the space in some way in some way. This is a community space and we believe that community care can collectively fund and support this space. Learn more about membership on the Get Involved page.
