Our sliding scale are multiples of 10 between $70 and $150.  In other words, you pick your monthly price from one of these options 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120, 130, 140, 150.  We don’t ask questions; your selection on the scale is about you and your financial needs – we want to do what we can to make sure you can do what you need to with us.  Also, you can change the amount you pay whenever you want – if your situation changes and you’d like to go up or down in price, as long as it fits within our scale we’re all good with that.

Yes!  We’re all about that green future.  We have indoor private bicycle parking for our members.

Nope – we’re one size fits all.  Once you’re a member you use the facility here to do what you gotta do.

Absolutely. We use zoom all the time from here and it works great. We recommend a head set for privacy.

Sonic Fiber 1GB full duplex.

Yes to printer and scanner!  no to fax 🙂

Yes on nights and weekends folks can get together! We’re always looking to create in group settings. Weekly we host art night where our community and their guests are welcome to roll up their sleeves and creatively hang out. We also host creative meetups from time to time too (like for projection mapping).

Consent is all about asking the people in the community before you do something that impacts them. Because we’re a coworking space by day, we observe consent hours every weekday.

Consent hours are simple: If you want to use a loud ass tool or get crazy with chemicals, talk to folks who are working. It’s really hard to talk to your boss over zoom when someone is drenching the makerspace in paint thinner. After 6pm we’re all done talking to our bosses – go crazy with the chop saw.

Why not just call them ‘quiet hours’ or something normal? Because CONSENT IS COOL and ‘quiet hours’ are way too restrictive. What if no one is telecommuting that day? What if the person telecommuting doesn’t care if you play with Nancy, the table saw?

It’s easy – if it’s consent hours and you wanna do something that’s going to impact the community – ASK FIRST (and be prepared to be told no too).

Sliding scale means designers, makers, artists, and folks generally sharing the shop for creative purposes choose their fees from one of these choices: 70, 80, 90, or 100, 110, 120, 130, 140, 150. You pay what you can afford – no questions asked.  This is the same for coworking.

Nope! We’re a project-based makerspace where folks come here to realize their vision. While we certainly skill-share as a community, our business model isn’t based around art-education. If you’re interested in taking classes, might we recommend these fantastic local organizations:

• Ace Makerspace
• The Crucible
• Grey Area

Please don’t bring any tools to share, no matter how cool they are 🙂

Nope – however there’s a great pottery studio around the block that will fire your work.

While you can work with wood at Filma we do not consider ourselves to be a “wood shop”. A dedicated wood shop would likely have way more cool saws, stuff like cnc routers, and some really good dust management among other features. We just don’t have that stuff – so when it comes to wood you could probably build a very basic table here, but you might not be manufacturing the next Burning Man temple.

If you’re interested in wood-working we recommend checking out Bridge Art & Storage, Ace Makerspace, and The Crucible. Each of these organizations has differing wood offerings depending on your needs, skill level, and desire for independence.
