Established in 2009, Freeside Atlanta is a 501(c)3 non-profit makerspace built entirely by volunteers. As a community, we have built our space with tools and equipment for electronics, 3D printing, woodworking, metalworking, art, design, classes, and events.
Everything you see in our space was donated or built by Freesiders. Our members engage in amazing projects and love to share their knowledge. Also, you don't have to be a member to come to our events or take a class!
