We are always looking for people to teach and expand our offerings. Off the top of my head here are some classes I have heard about and/or have thought about offering at the space.
It’s really easy to think “wouldn’t it be great if we could…” the harder part is finding someone willing to commit and see the class come to a finishing point. I can’t tell you the extents I’ve stretched to try to find people to teach. Everything from sending mass mailings to artists to cold-calling people that I find on etsy I try but it hasn’t been looking good for me.
Please make sure you read specifics: Teach – Dallas Makerspace
Please ask questions if you have them - it’s a process that has specific steps for a reason, the board is working hard to streamline the process but as of now it’s a labor-intensive behind-the-scenes-heavy process
