How It Started

We started out in a garage in West Dayton with just three pieces of machinery.

How It's Going

We’ve expanded to 1000 sq. ft. that includes over 15 pieces. We offer memberships, classes, and a space for our community to co-create what we hope the Westside Makerspace to be.

Where we are headed!

We are working hard to expand to an even bigger space, complete with studios/office space for rent, and larger workshops and equipment.

We’re so excited to help bring together all of the creatives and makers in our community to further demonstrate how great Dayton really is
