Maker Club of American Space Madrid – November 2, 2017

Maker Club of American Space Madrid

The Maker Club at American Space Madrid is a collaborative workspace for manufacturing, learning, exploration and knowledge exchange in which we will use both new technologies and traditional tools. You can make it!!

Objectives:

• Disseminate the maker culture, understood as a set of practices based on DIY or "do it yourself" and experimentation in the creation processes.
• Promote the meeting of creative boys and girls to promote synergies and collaboration between them. • Promote and disseminate new technologies, innovation and prototyping, bases of STEAM skills.
• Establish links with other projects of interest. In order for these objectives to be achieved, we offer:
  • Facilitate a common space for digital and analog creation by providing various tools for free.
  • A mentor who will propose activities and guide the club's participants.
  • Create autonomy for the participants to create collaborative learning among equals. You could have volunteers (fathers, mothers, acquaintances) who want to give a specific workshop or mini talk about the maker world.
