Situated in the Folie des Merveilles in the heart of the Parc de la Villette, VILLETTE MAKERZ by WoMa is a new space dedicated to discovering and experimenting with DIY crafts. It is designed for everyone (kids, families, adults, entrepreneurs, businesses, etc.) who is looking to make an idea reality or discover contemporary creation technology in areas such as design, 3D, coding, textiles, electronics, audiovisual media or the 'internet of things'.

A collective laboratory dedicated to ideas and creation - a Fab Lab - with its own shop, VILLETTE MAKERZ is a space where creators can work, experiment and share ideas. This constantly-evolving venue also offers a 'makerz school', a programme of cultural events echoing that of La Villette , as well as prototyping and innovation assisstance services.
