Fairfield MakerSpace

Fairfield MakerSpace A collaboration of tinkers, inventors, repair monkeys, coders, seamsters and assorted artists/engineer/mad scientists in and around Fairfield Iowa.

Are you a MAKER? Are you a tinkerer, an inventor or a fixer of broken stuff? Are you interested in developing your own product, brainstorming with others, or sharing your skills and experience? This group is developing a fledgling Makerspace in Fairfield where you can explore robotics, repair your bike, sew your own clothing...and make your DIY dream a hands-on reality.
