Host A Party (virtually at home!)
The Maker Bean Cafe is a fun & educational spot for your next party or event! We have 2 floors to host you, and can lead your group through fun & educational maker activities that’ll have you 3D printing, laser cutting & coding your way to your next project, while enjoying our extensive food & beverage selection.
Birthday Parties – at Maker Bean or virtual at-home
We’re excited to offer a wide variety of maker-themed activities for your next birthday party! We also have a delicious selection of baked goods, snacks & drinks to make your party a great one to remember.
For online options, we can facilitate a full tech-themed activity via video chat! You’d pick up all supplies, or arrange delivery, and our facilitators are experienced in leading children through each step of the fun! Cupcakes & birthday songs are a great end to virtual at-home parties too!
For kids birthday parties, we have a number of fun themes to get your group making, laughing & learning together:
Classic Party Activities
Build an Artbot
Learning about motors, batteries & wiring, kids will each build their own motorized robot that creates art on its own!
Minecraft + 2D Creation (best virtual online option!)
