Build. Play. Together.
For kids—and the grownups who jump in.
We’ve created a hands-on space—and a thoughtfully stocked shop—where kids turn cardboard into anything they imagine. During open build and guided workshops, they explore, experiment, and build side by side with family—gaining skills, solving problems, and growing in confidence along the way.
Our store features carefully selected tools and kits so the creativity can continue at home. Whether working together or letting kids take the lead, the focus stays simple: curiosity, creativity, and the joy of making.
Your $15 admission includes access to:
Cardboard
Enough cardboard to build the Taj Mahal.
Tools
Tools to cut, score, screw, and fasten - all available to use in our space
Accessories
You never know what you'll find in our collection of repurposed items.
Inspiration library

Templates

Good energy
Our open space encourages community, sharing of ideas and techniques, And, who knows you might make a friend or two.

Wait what about the grownups?
Every adult who walks in says the same thing: “I wish there was something like this for me.” There is. Adults need creative play just as much as kids. Making with your hands—builds skills, sparks curiosity, and creates real connection. Especially alongside other adults who are there to learn and experiment. Check out our Corrugated-U workshops or swing by and join one of our Sunday group builds.
We do parties
No matter the age, we’ll help you create a custom experience you’ll remember for years. Build a piñata, a cardboard castle, a magic forest, or even an adult maker project — whatever you imagine, we’ll design the event around it.
