It's a workshop with various tools and supplies that you can become a member of to use those resources. However, for me, it's much more about the other people. I learn a lot from other people, find folks to work on projects with, teach people stuff, and generally have a good time with folks that enjoy learning and making things.
I've started a music group at ours, and hopefully soon we'll be making instruments and teaching classes on circuit bending, classes on building fuzz faces, etc. We're trying to figure out how to put together the circuit bending class and waiting for our DIY wood CNC router project to be finished so that we can make some sort of strumstick/dulcimer instruments on it.
Some makerspaces only offer a certain type of tools/space; they may only do electronics. However, ours is an electronics lab, machine shop, space for working on cars, etc.
