Makerspace Tour
Is your organization interested in knowing more about what the Hamilton Public LIbrary's Makerspace has to offer?
Located on Circuit 4.0 4th floor Central Library . the Makerspace is made up of several spaces and equipment -- a sound studio, a video studio, 3D printers, digital media studio, large format printer, vinyl cutter and printer, and an embroidery machine. The Makerspace tour will always include an overview that will give the participants a general idea of the various projects that can be done in the space. If there is a specific topic or area that your organization would like to focus on, please indicate that in the form and we will try to accommodate this request.
Once you submit your request, expect Makerspace staff to contact you after around 2 business days.
Due to scheduling constraints, the soonest that a tour can be booked is around two weeks from the date the request is received.
If you are a Teacher or a Teacher Librarian and would like to arrange a visit for your class, please fill out the Library Visit Request form.
If you have any other questions, you can call the Makerspace at 905-546-3200 x3406
