Where Curiosity Gets a Passport
At MakerspaceCT, we don't just talk about changing lives. We teach it, wire it, laser-cut it, 3D-print it, solder it, code it, and send you home with not only knowledge and skills, but an amazing tech product you built yourself.
Our mission is to positively impact lives by enabling access, innovation, and education. We use 'making' as a vehicle to lift up individuals and communities at our 28,000 square foot innovation lab in Downtown Hartford, Connecticut.
"There is no other program in Connecticut that provides this much support, this much opportunity."

Join the GivingTuesday Movement
GivingTuesday is a movement that unleashes the power of radical generosity around the world. It reimagines a world built upon shared humanity and generosity.
Whether it's making someone smile, helping a neighbor or stranger out, showing up for an issue or people we care about, or giving some of what we have to those who need our help, every act of generosity counts, and everyone has something to give.
Please give generously in the spirit of this global movement.
Fuel the Spark of Innovation
Your contribution doesn't sit around politely. It gets to work, powering the spark that turns "I wonder if I could..." into "Holy wow, I did."
