Amazing people live here, from all over the world. We love that they can share incredibly diverse talents in a place like ours.

After Hurricane Sandy flooded his metalwork shop, artist Scott Van Campen decided to rebuild—for the community. With the help of fellow artist DB Lampman, MakerSpace has grown into a neighborhood facility to support individual entrepreneurship and sustain artists, engineers, hobbyists and inventors.

Their first workshop, “Women, Welding and Wine” sold out in an less than one hour.
