Makerspace at Cleveland Library
The brand-new Makerspace facility at Cleveland Library is now open! We welcome everyone in the community to stop by during the library’s opening hours to learn more about the Makerspace.
Whether you're a tech enthusiast eager to bring your digital creations to life, a hobbyist keen to delve into new crafting techniques, or a student working on a school project, the Makerspace offers something for everyone.
What is the Makerspace?
It is vibrant hub for creativity and innovation. This dynamic space within Cleveland Library is designed to inspire and empower the community through hands-on experiences in technology, crafting, media and design.
What’s in the Makerspace?
With sewing machines, an overlocker, embroidery machine, Cricut, 3D printer, a media conversion station and more to come, the facility offers unlimited opportunities to discover new skills and interests! Following a free equipment-specific induction and safety program, library members can then book time, at no cost, to explore the wide array of tools and resources on their own.
