Community Partnership Program
Are you looking to use the resources at the shop to help someone out?
Maker Works Community Workshops provides access to its facilities at a ‘pay what you can’ rate in certain circumstances. This can include our classes and membership.
Pictured are examples of activities that members of the shop have worked on at a free or reduced cost.
Survivor’s Speak building Buddy Benches for a local elementary school
Sensory Chairs for WISD and other organizations
Building furniture for individuals within foster care
Bookshelves for the Our House Mosaic Program
Custom adaptive solutions for learning
Adapting toys for kids who have visual impairments, motor limitations or cognitive limitations
You are not limited to what you see above. We’d love to see activities that:
Help grow small businesses, especially in areas of lower economic mobility
Increase the diversity in making
Assist populations coming out of difficult situations
Reduce our community’s impact on the environment
You’re not limited to ‘making things’. There’s a lot to learn at our shop that can be applied to job training, education, and mental health. This program helps you access our classes, tools, and space at a price point that works for you. It will be up to you to champion the activity!
