About Us
The Bellingham Makerspace is a 501(c)(3) non-profit community that provides access to tools, tool education, classroom space, and community resources in Whatcom County and greater NW Washington.
Started in 2014 as The Foundry, we’ve been in a 7,000+ square foot space at Bellis Fair Mall since 2020. We serve as a collaboration and community point for several local organizations and groups, such as Gabriel’s Art Kids, TAG NW Robotics Club, the Mount Baker Amateur Radio Club, Bellingham Evening Toastmasters, and more.
