FUSE Makerspace was thrilled to host the annual Merry Maker Market this past weekend—a lively celebration of creativity, community, and small businesses making big things happen right here in New Mexico. With over 20 local vendors participating, the market was filled with handmade goods, thoughtfully designed products, and one-of-a-kind creations you won’t find anywhere else.
The purpose of the Merry Maker Market is simple and intentional: to spotlight local makers and small businesses. By creating an accessible, supportive space for vendors to sell their work, connect with customers, and build relationships with fellow creatives. The market helps strengthen our local maker economy while encouraging the community to shop small and support local.
The event also showcased resources available through CNM Ingenuity, including ActivateNM, which supports entrepreneurs and small businesses with training, guidance, and connections to help ideas grow. Events like the Merry Maker Market are a natural extension of this work—bridging hands-on making with real-world opportunities to sell, learn, and grow.
If you’ve ever dreamed of starting your own business making things, FUSE is here to help you take that next step. As a FUSE member, you’ll have access to professional tools, skill-building classes, and a collaborative community of makers who are learning, experimenting, and building together.
The Merry Maker Market is just one example of what’s possible at FUSE. If you’re ready to turn your ideas into reality, join FUSE—where creativity flourishes.
FUSE Makerspace will be closed for the holidays beginning Wednesday December 24, 2025 and will reopen Monday, January 5, 2026. We hope you have a wonderful holiday season and we look forward to seeing you in the New Year!
