The NH Makerspace Network is a professional exchange that builds collaborative relationships between makerspaces, supporting their work to serve the entrepreneurs, artists, and makers that are a foundation of New Hampshire’s communities and economy.
The NH Makerspace Network was established through a partnership between the New Hampshire State Council on the Arts and makerspaces across the Granite State.
What is a Makerspace?
A makerspace is a community workshop where people come together to learn and create. Whether wood or metal crafting, technology development, or art-making, makerspaces help incubate and facilitate ideas and products by providing access to shared resources, instruction, and a peer-to-peer exchange of skills.
Amenities may include equipment and tools, instruction, mentorship, business development support, affordable studio rentals, and a supportive community of peers. Makerspaces welcome public participation through memberships, classes, and events.
