A recognition of the historic initiatives of the Global Fab Lab Network.
Boston, MA
In April, 2024, the Fab Foundation hosted its first annual Fab Month, a celebration of the people, places, and projects at the heart of the international Fab Lab Network. Over the course of the month, hundreds of community members from more than 50 countries came together for a series of nine online sessions celebrating the network’s ongoing accomplishments and exploring the breadth of its global initiatives. This collection of programs represents nearly a quarter-century of commitment to the Fab Foundation’s mission of democratizing access to digital fabrication technologies, providing the means for anyone anywhere to make (almost) anything.
The Fab Lab Network’s global initiatives offer diverse opportunities for innovation, education, career development, community engagement, social impact, and much more.
