About us
Milford Makes is a community art project built around access, reuse and connection. Turning donated materials into shared creative experiences.
What we're building...
Milford Makes is working toward a permanent creative reuse space in Milford - one where donated materials are collected, shared and transformed through hands-on creative experiences. We're starting small on purpose, using pop-up programs and mobile makerspaces to build momentum, learn from the community and shape what comes next.
Join the Community as we get started!
