“We believe the MakerSpace will be a transformational creative and educational space for our community.” Michael Cade, Executive Director, Thurston Economic Development Council
Create. Innovate. Inspire
The Lacey MakerSpace – your space to create your dream.
The Idea: create a space with tools and training for all to access, fostering new ideas and products, and providing support for makers turned entrepreneurs.
The Plan: partner with organizations that have the skills and resources to pull it off. Saint Martin’s University provided an ideal location on campus, and offers a wealth of support from their staff and administration. The City of Lacey kickstarted funding efforts and is matching community sponsors. The Thurston EDC Center for Business & Innovation has taken Lacey MakerSpace under their wing, with full access to their personnel and expertise.
The Result: the MakerSpace opened June of 2019. New tools and classes are added weekly, find us on Facebook and sign up for our newsletter to keep up to date!
Want to get involved? You can sign up for a membership to come use the tools, sign up for classes, and volunteer!
As part of a 501(c)(3) non-profit, we rely on community partners, volunteers, and donors to provide this amazing community resource. Contact us today to join the maker movement!
