Our Story

Welcome to Asmbly Makerspace, where every maker belongs! 🛠️✨


Asmbly empowers creators to transform their lives through making. As we grow into an additional 5,333 square feet in 2025 - adding a ceramics studio, expanding our metal shop, and creating private studios - we remain grounded to a core belief: creativity shouldn't be limited by barriers of access, background, or experience. This belief shapes our path forward, building upon three core pillars: Diversity, Accessibility, and Empowerment.



Diversity: We're proud to be a space where makers from all walks of life, backgrounds, and skill levels come together to create, learn, and grow. Our community includes artists, engineers, hobbyists, entrepreneurs, and dreamers – each bringing their unique perspective and enriching our collective creative spirit. We have also begun developing youth programming to ensure that makers of all ages are invited in to our creative community. As we continue to grow, we are committed to creating even more opportunities for diverse voices and visions to thrive.



Accessibility: Making should be for everyone, not just those with access to expensive tools or private workshops. We break down financial, physical, and educational barriers by providing:

  • Affordable membership options
  • Pathways to free membership through volunteer service
  • Free educational events open to the public
  • Spaces designed for makers of all abilities
  • Educational resources for all skill levels



Empowerment: At Asmbly, we don't just provide tools – we provide the confidence, skills, and community support needed to turn creative dreams into reality. 

Through mentorship, workshops, and collaborative opportunities, we empower makers to:

  • Learn new skills at their own pace
  • Start creative businesses with community support
  • Build lasting connections within the maker community
  • Create more opportunities for skill-sharing and mentorship



As Austin's largest nonprofit makerspace, we're at a crucial moment in our journey. Through I Live Here I Give Here's Amplify Austin fundraiser, you can help us create an even more inclusive and empowering creative home. 


When you support Asmbly, you're not just funding tools and space – you're investing in a more equitable, creative, and connected Austin. You're helping ensure that everyone, regardless of their background or circumstances, has the opportunity to create, innovate, and thrive.


Join us in building a space where diversity flourishes, creativity is accessible to all, and every maker feels empowered to bring their vision to life.

Together, let's create a more inclusive and creative Austin!
