The Idea Foundry is the place where anyone can explore their urge to make things. Working together, we marry ideas and talents, tools and resources, experience and opportunity into a shared community of making. We are home to a diverse and welcoming community of Makers--students and lifelong learners, artists & artisans, tech-enthusiasts, the DIY weekend warrior through to the full-time entrepreneurs. Whether what you make is physical or digital, for pleasure or for business, we have the tools, training, and network to help you advance. Not sure where to start? Take one of our 30+ classes to hone skills or creative hobby, or just have a beginner-friendly creative experience amongst friends or family at one of our social, date, or family nights. Need to level up from coffee shop squatting? Take a commitment-free test drive of our coworking space--there's still a coffee shop on site!Looking to prototype an idea, get a product to market, learn how to start or grow a business? We have people, classes, and space for that. For an unforgettable event or corporate team building that includes Instagram-able moments for your attendees like blacksmithing or drone racing-- let us design an experience for your group that inspires and invigorates!
