We’re living in an era of short attention spans and digital overwhelm. Many of us feel disconnected — from our creativity, our confidence, and our community. In a world pulling at us from every direction, Gorge MakerSpace offers something real — a place to slow down, focus our minds, challenge ourselves in new ways, and inspire one another. Your donation keeps the MakerSpace accessible and affordable for everyone, so that anyone, at any age, can rediscover joy, purpose, and presence through making with their hands. Your donation nurtures a stronger, healthier, and more connected Gorge.

Our community is stronger when we work together.

  • Through our scholarship funds, direct outreach, and bilingual classes and events, we hope to reach makers from all corners of our community.

  • We’ve increased our staff and we’re expanding our spaces, all so we can offer you more fun classes and ways for you to flex your creative muscles.

  • We’re always striving to keep our makers safe and healthy. This year we’re focusing on better dust collection and ventilation, so our students are always breathing fresh air.
