I first heard about The Rivet last year because of their pottery studio, but I think the space…read moreoverall is relatively new (starting in ~2020). Being unfamiliar with makerspaces, I wasn't really sure what to expect but because I was so desperate to do pottery and my previous pottery studio was already maxed out on memberships, I decided to explore what they had and take the pottery clearance class. In case you're new to it like me, a makerspace is sort of a big workshop with tools and supplies for crafts and arts that might be too large scale or expensive for a home set-up. The Rivet has 8 pottery wheels, a laser cutter, a 3D printer, a jewelry studio, a woodworking area, soon will have textiles and sewing, and probably even more that I'm forgetting about! The way it works is you take a clearance class, which goes over some of the basics (very basic!) and how to use the space and clean up after yourself. I think most clearance classes are around $12. They do not go into teaching techniques for those (or at least not the pottery one). However... they do have lots of classes that DO go over techniques! They have wheel throwing pottery classes as well as some handbuilding, but they also have classes for their other stations. I'm taking a jewelry class next month that I'm pretty excited about. Their prices for everything seem very reasonable, course fees and material fees all seem about average for this sort of thing. Since my only experience so far is their pottery area, the access pass is $7 for a half day (4 hours) or $12 for a full day (8 hours). They also offer monthly memberships but those seem pricier and I'm not sure if my visits will make it worth it (at least for now). I really appreciate that the clay is priced based on what you fire, not what you take as wet clay. I'm still pretty new to wheel-throwing and am in dire need of practice, not necessarily making a lot to keep but practicing throwing so that eventually I can fire a lot. Wheel throwing is difficult and takes time so I'm appreciative that I don't have to pay for all my failures, hah! I think their price is $4/lb for things before they go in the kiln for the first time. A little more than some places but that includes glazes and two firings, so I think it ends up being pretty reasonable. The space has always been clean and the people who work and volunteer there are SO nice. This is really a great way to learn new skills and meet new makers in the community. I highly recommend checking it out!

From the owner: The Rivet offers skill-based classes where you can learn equipment such as how to use a 3D printer,…read moremiter saw, drill press, pottery wheel or embroidery machine. The Rivet also offers project-based classes where you can make your own laser cut map, naturally imprinted plates, stackable rings, and more. If you already have a hobby or skill, you can teach a class or use our equipment for your own projects. If you want to learn with your friends, you can schedule a class specially for your group.

I really liked the vibe at Waldo's & Company. It's not just a coffee spot, it feels more like a…read morecreative space. There are books, local art, and little details everywhere that make you want to look around instead of just grabbing your coffee and leaving. I had a cappuccino and it was smooth and well made, but honestly the atmosphere is what makes this place stand out. It's the kind of place where you can sit for a while, relax, or get some work done without feeling rushed. Also loved the concept of supporting local artists and the overall community feel. Definitely a place I'd come back to when I want something a bit different than a typical coffee shop.

Came home to a fire in our neighbors tree displacing some young squirrels. They were as high up as…read morethey could get (as they were singed and burnt), but still were screaming. i asked the firefighter after the fire was put out, who could come and get the squirrels. he said he didn't know, and to ask the officer at the scene. I counted 4 in the tree on the remaining branches. you could tell they were hurt. I placed my call to an organization that is well known, so someone could come and get these lil guys out of the tree and help them. They had me going back and forth with phone calls over the next 1/2 hour, only to tell me that can't help and they sent me a list of places that may be able to help. Saw "Acorn Acres " so I called them . Betsy told me that if I was able to get them, to bring them to her. I couldn't climb a half burnt tree, even with a smaller ladder I wouldn't be able to reach them. Felt hopeless, just listening to the one screaming. Then I got a call from the neighbor that one had fallen from the tree i immediately went over with a towel, called Betsy and she said to bring him right over even tho it was 10 minutes before they closed. She was so incredible. She was kind but to the point. She was so knowledgeable as well, and told me how I could follow up on my lil guy. I didn't know there were any type of rescue/hospital/rehabilitation for them! I felt like I was just passed off, or that it wasn't enough of an emergency for other wildlife organizations that I had contacted. I am so glad I found her and her rehab ! I don't know what I would've done with the lil guy if she wasn't there! Hopefully he'll be okay, but if not, I know that I left him in caring hands, and someone that will do all she can to make sure he's in no pain! Thank you so so much Betsy!

I hired them for a total of three hours to empty a storage cube of furniture and boxes as we were moving into our new home.
