What if... there was a public makerspace in every community, free to use for local people and groups?
Space like Everyone's Warehouse in East London, kitted out with workshops and tools for wood, fabric, digital, cooking, making and dreaming...
It's one of the biggest in the country, and there's no cost to use it, because, they say: "We think this is really important for using these types of spaces for building inclusive economies. We’d like the Warehouse to be seen very much like a public library or a park, and just as essential."
What an inspiring venue for our London gathering happening very soon! Join us and see it in action: https://eventbrite.co.uk/e/608557169877
