How to contact us:
Please be patient with us as we continue to further develop and optimize our operating model.
Our Maker workspace is located in incubator13 (room 124) at the Rideau Community Hub (decommissioned Rideau High School), 815 St-Laurent Boulevard.
The STEAM-fx Collective has in-person (and online as requested) meetups on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of each month (6:30pm - 8:30pm).
The STEAMakers Guild meets up every Wednesday from 3:00 - 8:00. (With the campus and incubator13 facility being a bit like a reverse escape room, it's good to send an email in advance so that we can have someone greet and escort you.)
The Guild functions on an informal basis. Generally, from 3:00 - 6:00, members either do their own thing or volunteer toward a project within the The Rideau Community Hub (the high school) or within incubator13 itself. The evenings, though still informal and social, are prioritized toward specific sub-groups (e.g. Hack613, STEAM-fx Collective special effects work, Flux & Friends soldering sessions).
We also encourage membership in Hack613, a group of Makers/Hackers (that's hackers in the traditional sense rather than those nasty online miscreants) who meet up regularly at various locations across the city for Maker discussions and projects. STEAMakers and STEAM-fx are ongoing long-term projects that were spawned from the Hack613 group.)
Hack613 has a regular incubator13 meetup on the 3rd Wednesday of each month (7:00pm - 9:00pm)
Flux & Friends, a DIY soldering kit social/practical meetup, occurs on the 1st Wednesday of each month from 6:00pm - 8:00pm.
Membership in all of these groups is free of charge.
