Maven Makers. A community of makers in a collaborative makerspace that cultivates a culture of creativity.
SAVANNAH’S MAKERSPACE
Maven Makers is Savannah’s makerspace—a beautiful and spacious workshop full of tools, materials and ideas to inspire your next creative project. Take a class and kick your skills up to the next level. Learn how to use new tools—from bandsaws and soldering irons to 3d printers. And collaborate with like-minded makers who can give you insights and advice on your projects. You’ll progress from Novice to Maven in no time.
MEMBERSHIP OPTIONS
We offer several membership packages to best suit your needs, with the Year Membership giving you two months free, one month free with a 6 month membership, or you can purchase the monthly plan to pay as you go.
You can also purchase a day pass in lieu of a membership. Day passes allow you to use the equipment for one day, providing that you’ve taken the required safety classes for the equipment you want to use.
BEFORE YOU START
Before using any of the equipment you’ll need to take our safety training classes. For woodworking equipment, you’ll make a cutting board and a push stick while learning how to use the tools safely.
In order to take the training classes you must be a member so make sure you purchase a monthly membership, your training package, then find the dates on our schedule that work for you. Let’s make something together!
