Sunday, September 27
10:00 AM–2:00 PM
POP UP SHOP:
Open to the public throughout the day. It’s your last chance to browse our collection of donated creative materials before the Pop-Up closes. Come find those supplies you’ve been thinking about—or discover something completely unexpected!
12:00–2:00 PM
Makers Meet Up:
Come make with us at our Sunday Milford Makers meetup! Gather to work on our projects (BYO materials) over a good cup of coffee (or tea), with a side of great conversation. Come share what you are working on, learn from others, or just enjoy the company of fellow makers.
This weekend is a glimpse of what Milford Makes is working toward: a place where creative materials get a second life, people can explore new skills, and makers can come together. We hope you’ll come experience our Mini Creative Reuse Center, find something to make with, and be part of what comes next.
About Milford Makes
Milford Makes is working to establish a Makerspace + Creative Reuse Center where people can access affordable creative materials, learn new skills, explore their creativity, and connect with others through making.
By keeping usable materials in circulation and creating more opportunities for people to make together, we hope to make creativity more accessible while reducing waste in our community.
Thank you for being part of Milford Makes and helping us build what’s next.
