maakleerplekWhat could it mean for you?

At maakleerplek you can learn new skills in a variety of ways. Workshops can be technical, creative or practical, often with a strong link to making, experimenting and doing it yourself.

• Grafisch lab
• Textiellab
• High-tech lab
• Foodatelier César

You can work on your own projects in our open labs:

There are two ways to get something repaired here, and the difference matters: at a repair café volunteers repair your things, at a repair hub it is a paid service. Both run at set times, so check the calendar before you bring anything along.

Can you repair things yourself? You are welcome at the repair cafés as a volunteer repairer, on the other side of the table.

• Work on your own ideas
• Experiment with tech
• Learn by doing
• Guidance from coaches

Do you know someone for whom a classroom doesn't work, but a workbench just might? Bridge figures, learning shops, pupil guidance centres, youth workers, community workers: we would love to work with you. We don't wait for people to find us: together we actively bring in those least likely to come by themselves.

• A warm handover: come along together the first time
• A first visit is free and without obligation
• Facilitators who are there: the relationship is the active ingredient, not the machine
