Our Mission

Wake'n'Make exists to dissolve the boundary between making things and making meaning. We support and produce creative work that uses light, sound, motion, computation, and physical systems to invite participation, spark wonder, and create shared moments of experience.

Our projects are designed to be felt, explored, and inhabited — not just observed. We believe that large-scale, hands-on making is a powerful cultural practice, and that art thrives in environments where tools, skills, and curiosity are shared.

Our Practice

Wake'n'Make functions simultaneously as:

From early experiments to fully realized installations, we help ideas move from sketch to structure.

What We Make

The Space & The Shop

The Wake'n'Make shop provides tools, workspace, and infrastructure to support ambitious creative projects. Members gain access to shared equipment, fabrication resources, and a community of makers working across disciplines.

The shop exists in service of the work — enabling artists and builders to take risks, learn by doing, and create at scale.

Build With Us.

Wake'n'Make welcomes artists, engineers, fabricators, and curious makers who want to create meaningful experiences in the physical world.
