Protospace is a volunteer-run, non-profit makerspace in Calgary, Alberta. We bring together artists, builders, hackers, engineers, and curious people who want to learn, make things, and share what they know.
A place to make things
Our 6,500-square-foot space includes dedicated areas for woodworking, metalworking, sewing, electronics, laser cutting, 3D printing, machining, welding, and larger projects. Members can use shared tools and workspaces around the clock, with training available for equipment that requires an orientation.
Explore the spaces and equipment available to members, or visit the individual pages for the wood shop, metal shop, laser cutters, sewing room, electronics lab, and 3D printers.
Community-powered
Protospace has no owners, employees, or shareholders. The space is run by its members, who volunteer their time to maintain equipment, teach classes, organize events, and keep the community welcoming. Beginners and experienced makers are equally welcome.
Come visit
The best way to get to know Protospace is to come to our open house, every Tuesday from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm, including holidays. Drop in for a tour, meet members, and see what we are building. Find contact and location details before you visit.
