About this event

  • 3 hours

Tours are held for the general public every first and third Thursday of the month. Reserving your spot via EventBrite is highly recommended.

To reach our location, parking the Canal Place parking lot outside of Missing Falls Brewery and R. Shea Brewing. You will see a sign above a door that says "Building 1, 2 & 4." Enter through that door and look for signs pointing you to Akron Makerspace. You will head straight back, down the ramp and take a sharp left after the double doors to the elevator. Take the elevator to the fifth floor and we'll be ready and waiting for you!

If a visual walkthrough to the Space is easier for you, check the video on the event page.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to claim a free ticket to attend?

Yes! We highly recommend reserving a spot in advance. This gives us a headcount and helps us coordinate our volunteers. If there is a tour date with no sign-ups, we do not schedule tour guide volunteers for that date.

Is it REALLY free?

Yep, absolutely free. However, if you want a demonstration of our cool UFO donation collection system, bring some coins or bills you don't mind donating to the Space.

How can I donate to the Akron Makerspace?

How do I join Akron Makerspace?

We encourage all individuals interested in membership to take a tour (you're in the right spot!) and join our Discord server (www.akronmakerspace.org/discord). Once those are complete, you can visit our website for more information on how to submit your member application.

Where do I park?

The parking lot at Canal Place outside of R. Shea is available for any guests of Canal Place tenants (that's us!). Please do NOT park in the Missing Falls parking lot.

Is the Space handicap accessible?

We do our best to keep Akron Makerspace accessible, but some items are out of our control. As we're in an old industrial building, the elevator may occasionally be down for repair. There are handicap parking spots available in the parking lot and ramps leading up to both doors.
