Get Involved

A makerspace by, and for, winonans
Join a thriving community of innovators and creators. Discover events, share ideas, and help support a mission that inspires collaboration and sparks creative possibilities.
Accepting donations big and small
Opening a nonprofit makerspace stocked with tools and technology is not an easy undertaking. Please consider a cash donation to our fund, or donating working tools or supplies at one of our upcoming tool drives (none scheduled at this time).
Note: While Winona Creators Collective has applied for IRS 501(c)3 charity status, that status is still pending.
Join Us IRL
There are many ways you can help build and run the Winona makerspace:

Share Your Experience
If you’re an expert in a field, we want to hear from you! Consider joining a Special Interest Group to connect with fellow makers, or apply to be a teacher or area volunteer around a topic.

Join Core Team
Our volunteer team meets on the first and third Wednesday of each month to keep the project moving. Reach out to Mark Zocher for more information on how to join
Keep the conversation going
Participate in discussions and learn about upcoming maker events with the following tools:
- Talk (our forums)
- Winona Area Makers group on Facebook


Tell your friends
We all know other creators, makers, or people wanting to learn a new skill. Share the mission of Winona Creators Collective with your friends and neighbors, and bring them along to an upcoming meeting!
