Welcome to Rochester Makerspace
A Community Workshop for Creators, Builders & Innovators
Rochester Makerspace is a nonprofit, member-driven workshop designed for makers of all skill levels. Whether you’re a hobbyist, artist, entrepreneur, or lifelong learner, we provide the tools, space, and community you need to bring your ideas to life.
Our fully equipped facility offers woodworking, metalworking, 3D printing, electronics, laser cutting, and more—plus workshops and events to help you learn new skills. Collaboration and creativity thrive here, and we welcome everyone to explore, build, and grow with us.
Join us and turn your ideas into reality!
Open House Schedule
There will be no open house Thursday, February 12th because we will be hosting our annual member meeting! All current members are encouraged to attend — there will be pizza!
We hold two open houses a week, during which our doors are open to the public. During open house, we offer an introductory tour and safety orientation of the Makerspace, after which membership applications are available. Open house occurs:
Every Thursday at 6pm
Every Saturday at 11am
You can expect the tour to take one hour. Please arrive on time, as the tour starts very soon after open house. There’s no RSVP or signup required for open house — simply arrive on time and ready to learn!
If any cancellations are made due to weather or scheduling, we will provide an update here on our website homepage. If you have any specific questions regarding open house, please email office@rocmakers.org. Please contact the office in advance if you have any accessibility needs for open house, such as ASL interpretation; we are happy to make whatever arrangements we can, though it may take some time! The building does have a wheelchair ramp (through the loading bay). If you’ll be attending open house in a wheelchair, please let us know in advance, and we’ll open the bay door for you.
We will not be holding open house on the following days:
Independence Day (Saturday, July 4th)
Thanksgiving Day (Thursday, November 26th)
Christmas Eve (Thursday, December 24th)
Holiday Break (Saturday, December 26th)
