Who We Are:[edit source]

We are membership based community, non-profit, workshop/laboratory providing tools, knowledge, and learning resources for our members.

The resources available to our members are there for them to learn, experiment, or develop products/projects.
Everyone in our community is encouraged to share their knowledge to help others learn something new. The GJmakerspace also holds unique educational events and showcases of members projects to further the educational needs of our members.
At the GJmakerspace we believe that collaboration and sharing is an effective form of education that is not commonly thought of in our current culture.
