Fabville Design Center

Fabville is a fabrication space within Somerville High School aiming to complement the collection of professional, semi-professional, and artist-focused spaces already available in and around Somerville. With a focus on education, design, and entrepreneurship, the Somerville Fab Lab is focused on engaging people in the creative process of design and prototyping, using its tools and resources to support, rather than drive, that creative process. This means, unlike many such spaces, we are not focusing on supporting small businesses or simply providing tools for small-scale manufacturing but instead on making available a design and entrepreneurial mindset and approach which can be meaningfully engaged with computation and fabrication equipment.
