Quelab is Albuquerque’s hackerspace. Our mission is to foster and sustain an environment that promotes creativity, invention, and collaboration at the intersections of science, culture, art and technology. If you’re unfamiliar with the hackerspace movement, we recommend these two articles by NPR: DIY ‘Hackers’ Tinker Everyday Things Into Treasure and A Space For DIY People To Do Their Business. Better yet, you can experience it yourself by joining us at one of our events! We host three events a week at minimum–Hacknights on Sundays and Tuesdays at 7pm, and Co-Working Wednesdays 9am-5pm.
Quelab is a Nonprofit organization started as a entirely self-funded and membership-driven organization, staffed by a group of passionate volunteers who strongly believe that hackerspaces can help make the world a better place.
We provide:
- WiFi
- Desks
- Comfortable chairs
- Conference room
- A growing library of technical books
- Work benches
- Tools
- Soldering irons
- Test equipment
- Stock of parts to use on projects
Beginner, intermediate, or advanced – everyone welcome!
Hack Nights: Tuesday and Sunday at 7pm, $5 for non-members
Co-working Wednesdays: Wednesdays 10am to 5pm, $5 for non-members
