A community makerspace in Lowell, Massachusetts
Lowell Makes is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, shared community workshop and laboratory. We are an organized group of local artists, engineers, makers, and thinkers who work together to provide tools and learning resources to the public. We use these resources to collaborate on individual and community projects in order to promote science, technology and art; while working and experimenting on innovative ideas to encourage learning within our community.
Our weekly tours on Wednesday nights are the best time to see our makerspace.
