🗳️Voted Best Maker Space of Boston 2026! 🎉

“From sand casting to sewing, this 52,000-square-foot maker sanctuary has everything you need to start a new hobby—or level up an old favorite. While the calendar is packed with hands-on workshops, you don’t need a class ticket to start tinkering. Free community events—covering everything from robotics to fiber arts—keep the vibe collaborative, while eclectic pop-ups like the Queer Art Market bring a constant buzz of creative energy.”

Thank you to the team at @bostonmagazine for recognizing our efforts, and our community for continuing to show up and out for what A2 can do!

We were thoughtful in how we built out our Wood Shop. We understand that woodworking isn't linear so we fitted the space to make sure that you can design, cut, sand, assemble, stain, or automate with our CNC ShopBot. If you're an artist, woodworker, or designer with an idea, we're here for you 24/7. by @artisansasylum

✂️ stuck on your crochet project? dropped a stitch on your knitting? need a body double to get through that mending pile? need extra time to work on your halloween costume or ugly holiday sweater? longing to put your phone on do-not-disturb while you try out the floor loom? seeking a big table (that isn’t the floor) to cut out your next sewing project? craving an antidote to doomscrolling on a wednesday evening?

🧶 tackle all of this and more at our relaxed co-working session, once per month during Sewcial Club—bring your projects, meet new friends, explore all that our fiber shop has to offer, leave refreshed and inspired!

🎧 socialization encouraged, but not required (feel free to wear your earplugs/headphones while you lock in)
🎟️ event is FREE and open to the public (suggested donation $5)
