What is The Amherst Makerspace?

Amherst Makerspace is a collaborative project with the Amherst Recreation Department and the Amherst Middle School. An entire wing at the Amherst Middle School, is open to the surrounding communities during non-school hours. We provide the ultimate workshop for paid members, to use State Of the Art tools, share knowledge, work on projects, network, and build things. Our goal is to foster a highly collaborative learning environment that is excellent for individuals who learn best by doing and making, with like-minded people or self-directed.

Mission Statement
We are an open, collaborative shop and idea laboratory where members and students
convene to learn, create and tinker with the goal of improving ourselves, our community and our schools

Vision Statement
The Amherst Makerspace exists to facilitate the growth and improvement of our community by offering tools, training and an open workspace to experiment with and master a wide variety of Maker skills. We are dedicated to sharing our collective knowledge and experience to build a community of Makers and provide new skills and opportunities to everyone.

Community: Foster development of a community of diverse people, with a common goal of knowledge sharing and growth.
