We're a community of students on a mission to learn through making hands-on projects.
We are tinkerers, creative thinkers, and problem solvers. We are future scientists, engineers, architects, and artists. What brings us all together is that we are all makers.
We created Maker Hub Club to bring together student makers from all disciplines and provide them with makerspace equipment, funding for projects, and most importantly, a community where they can share their projects and collaborate with others. Today, we serve student makers from secondary schools all across the United States.
