Grand Opening

We moved in 2014, expanding from 5,600 square feet to over 17,000 square feet! At our new location we have more tools, one of the fastest Internet connections around (500 Mbps!), more A/C and upgraded classrooms/workspaces. Please come visit our new amazing community workshop on Saturday, January 24th from 10am to 6pm.

The Dallas Makerspace is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, shared community workshop and laboratory. We are an organized group of local artists, engineers, makers, and thinkers who work together to provide tools and learning resources to the public.

We use these resources to collaborate on individual and community projects in order to promote science, technology and art; while working and experimenting on innovative ideas to encourage learning within our community.

At the Dallas Makerspace we believe that collaboration is a truly effective form of learning. To that end, our members and volunteers teach classes, hold unique educational events and collaborate on cool projects.

• 24/7 Access to our tools & space
• A voice in how the organization is run
• Discounts on some classes and workshops
• Support our mission

Without volunteers the Dallas Makerspace wouldn’t be able to function, please help us out by teaching, organizing and with general upkeep of the space.
