Washington-Centerville Public Library

🛠️ Our doors may be temporarily closed, but making never takes a break! 🎨✨

As we continue setting up our new, expanded makerspace at the Centerville Library, we know many of you are already thinking about your next project. We don’t want your creativity to be put on hold while we are moving to our new home.

One of the best things about being part of the maker community is the incredible network of organizations around us that share a passion for creating, learning, and innovation. Whether you’re looking for tools, workshops, specialized equipment, or simply a place to explore a new hobby, there are some amazing local resources ready to welcome you.

While we’re getting everything ready, we wanted to highlight a few local makerspaces and community organizations that help keep creativity thriving in our region. Each offers unique opportunities to learn new skills, connect with fellow makers, and bring your ideas to life. We encourage you to check them out, support these fantastic organizations, and continue creating while we’re away.

We’ll be back before you know it, and we can’t wait to welcome everyone into our new space!

💙 Keep creating. Keep learning. Keep making.
