Membership
We are a member-driven organization, so all members can influence the development of the Makerspace. All membership fees and donations go directly towards renting the space or buying equipment/supplies for events to support the space. Nobody is getting paid, it’s all volunteers.
​
Join our creative community at Conejo Valley Makerspace, where we integrate with your passion for making. Whether you're a hobbyist, professional, or enthusiast, our makerspace provides the ideal environment for you to connect, collaborate, and bring your creative ideas to life.

Keyed or Non-Keyed Member
What is Keyed and Non-Keyed Membership?
The only difference between a Keyed Member and a Non-Keyed Member is having a key to the front door.
​
A Keyed Member can let them themselves in to work on projects whenever they want (24x7 - We won’t judge!) While working at the space, the Keyed Members can decide to open the space to non-keyed members or not. The space is always open during scheduled meetings and public events.
​
Non-Keyed Members can only be in the space during events or when a Keyed Member has opened the space, and must leave when the last keyed member decides to close the space. All other benefits are the same.

Membership dues pay the rent and other expenses of the space. To ensure we can pay the bills, automatic recurring payments are required for everyone.

No sleepovers.

Members are responsible for ensuring their visitors also follow the rules.
-
These rules may be updated in the future.
-
We do not condone illegal activities and we don’t want one bad apple ruining it for the bunch. So, if you break the law in the space, with something you built in the space, or in any way that reflects poorly on the space, you will no longer be welcome as a member or a guest of the space.
-
Anyone who breaks these rules may have their membership, and/or permission to be in the space, terminated.
