Our Mission

We are an open, collaborative shop and idea laboratory where members and students convene to learn, create, and tinker with the goal of improving ourselves, our community and our schools.

Our Vision

The Amherst Makerspace exists to facilitate the growth and improvement of our schools and the community at large by offering tools, training and an open workspace to experiment with and master a wide variety of Maker skills. We are dedicated to sharing our collective knowledge and experience to build a community of Makers and provide new skills and opportunities to everyone.

Education

The ability to provide new and relevant educational growth opportunities for our students and for the community as a whole is vital to growth both personally and as a community.
