DECATUR MAKERS INC

Decatur Makers is the only all-ages community makerspace in Georgia

Our diverse community is made up of makers from 5 to 105 years old including artists, designers, fabricators, welders, woodworkers, engineers, textile workers, programmers, 3D printing professionals, crafters, teachers, students, entrepreneurs, and others. Our community has hobbyists as well as professionals learning and building all kinds of cool projects. Our goal has always been to foster a place where all makers feel welcomed and accepted regardless of background, race, gender, lifestyle, skill sets, experience, or age. We strive to include all makers around Atlanta by keeping our membership dues low, providing needs-based scholarships, and offering most of our programs to the public.

Located in downtown Decatur, our 2,500 square foot makerspace has a woodshop, electronics shop, biolab, textiles area, arts and crafts, 3D printers, laser cutters, metalworking, and more under one roof. Our programs include membership to our space, classes that are open to the public, free community gatherings for youth and adults, youth STEAM outreach and teacher professional development, and solving problems with the help of our community expertise to build solutions for our community partners.
