About us
At Makespace Australia, we believe in the power of creativity, exploration, and the joy of hands-on learning. We are dedicated to providing fun and engaging craft-focused workshops in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) for young innovators.
Our Mission:
Our mission is to inspire the next generation of innovators and problem-solvers by seamlessly blending the worlds of STEM with the boundless creativity of the arts (STEAM). We begin our journey with craft-focused workshops, where kids can explore the wonders of plants, learn the basics of woodworking, and build on scientific concepts.
Paving the Way for Future Innovations:
While our current focus is on hands-on craft projects, we see these workshops as the building blocks of a broader exploration into the exciting realms of STEAM. As we nurture creativity through crafting, we envision a future where our workshops support collaborative ventures throughout Brisbane and beyond!

We're not just a workshop; we're a community of curious minds and creative spirits. Join us on this exciting journey by sharing your ideas, creations, and feedback.
