Temporarily Closed.  The MakerSACE will reopen on Saturdays ONLY from 10am-5pm, starting from January 15.  
 

The MakerSPACE at the Newark Museum is an interactive area where visitors of all ages play, tinker and create as they make connections between the materials, processes and concepts of artwork and natural science objects in the Museum’s collections and their own creativity.  

Use our galleries for inspiration!  

• Investigate artworks in the galleries, then visit the MakerSPACE to try out an idea from an artwork on display.  

• Learn how a work of art in the galleries was traditionally made, then challenge yourself to find new ways to transform the materials or ideas in an artwork.     

• Begin by experimenting with materials and processes in the MakerSPACE, then visit the galleries to see what the artists on display have made using similar methods.
