MAKE Space, Build Community | The Current

Step inside MAKE Roanoke, where creativity meets community in Virginia's Star City. This volunteer-run makerspace offers 24/7 access to cutting-edge tools and technology - from CNC routers to 3D printers, woodworking equipment to electronics labs. But it's more than just tools; it's a thriving community where experts and beginners alike share knowledge, celebrate successes, and turn creative dreams into reality. Since it’s soft launch in April, MAKE Roanoke has become a hub where artists and tinkerers of all backgrounds come together to learn, build, and inspire.
