The Hacktory

Promoting the use of technology in the arts.

Our goal is to empower people and give them a sense that technology can be a tool for personal expression. We want to reinforce the idea that our world is malleable – the devices and spaces we interact with everyday can be repurposed and modified to create new experiences.

The Hacktory is incubated as a project of Nonprofit Technology Resources.
