Civic design and citizen labsThird places and tiers-lieuxNetwork meetingNational

Annual meeting of the French network of fablabs and maker spaces, held since 2017 every October in a different city with a host lab. Over three or four days it combines fablab visits, talks and workshops on the role of these places in passing on know-how and responding to local crises. It is a practice-oriented space with affordable tickets and a member discount. Its interest for civic design lies in the link between distributed fabrication, third places and territory.
