“Truckee Roundhouse is one of the most inspiring and innovative community spaces in the Truckee–Tahoe region. It’s so much more than a makerspace—it’s a creative hub where people of all ages and skill levels can learn, build, experiment, and connect. From woodworking and metalworking to textiles, ceramics, 3D printing, and digital fabrication, the range of equipment and workshops is incredible.
The staff and volunteers are knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely excited to help you bring ideas to life. Whether you’re a beginner trying something new or an experienced maker working on a detailed project, the Roundhouse offers the tools, guidance, and community energy to make it happen.
Their events are fantastic too. The annual holiday fair, classes, camps, and open studio nights highlight just how special this place is for locals, families, and creative professionals. It’s a welcoming environment that encourages curiosity, hands-on learning, and collaboration.
If you’re looking for a vibrant, community-driven makerspace in Truckee, the Truckee Roundhouse is truly unmatched. A wonderful asset to our region and a place that continues to inspire creativity year-round.”
“I can't say enough about how amazing they are. From trainers, volunteers, adoption managers... they are all incredible. Their love ofnthe animals and willingness to help families who adopt. I only wished I lived in Truckee so I could be there more often to volunteer.”

“We were stranded in Truckee during a winter storm, waiting for interstate to open (it didn't), and desperate for options to keep our 6 & 8 year olds from going stir crazy (and also for parents' sanity). The KidZone Museum came through in a big way!! The range of activities kept our kids active, engaged, and thoroughly happy for more than 3 hours. We will happily re-visit this hidden gem in the future (even if we aren't stranded)!”
“Huge Shoutout to everyone that makes HIGHFIVE possible! This is an amazing organization, and I'm thankful for everyone who's involved with what they do! They've helped me secure funding to purchase a Monoski so I can finally shred the mountains again!”
