Metrix Create:Space is a place where you come to make things and work on projects. We provide comfortable work space, tools and help where you need it. We have a wide selection of tools, from sewing machines to hammers to oscilloscopes. Our stock of inventory is still growing, but we carry most basic electronic components as well as kits and bits you might need for your project. If you don’t see what you’re looking for, always ask, we can either get it for you in a hurry or point you to a nearby source.
We offer laser cutting and engraving services as well as 3D printing and design help. We have a growing schedule of workshops to give you the skills and confidence you need to work on projects of your own.

Conference Venue
The Conference will be held at Neumos Crystal Ball Reading Room on Saturday. Drinks will be provided all day and we will have a catered Lunch.
Neumos Crystal Ball Reading Room, most often referred to as Neumos, is a mid-size music venue in Seattle, Washington. The space was originally opened as Moe’s Mo’Roc’N Café in 1992 and re-launched in 2003 under its current name (pronounced “new moe’s”). The Concert Hall side of the business has always been our priority, and the lifeline to all other things that surround it. We pride ourselves on our always relevant and carefully curated music calendar, light production and state of the art sound system. The Concert Hall has 3 full service bars, and a second floor with a nicely seated mezzanine and balcony over looking the showroom. The showroom is draped in lush red theatre curtain, is fitted with an ample size stage, merch area, and superior unobstructed sight lines. We play host to several musical genres, by national and local artists alike including but not excluded to Indie Rock, Hip Hop, Punk Rock, DJ’s , Metal, Singer/Song Writers, Country and much more.
