About Makers ArcadeMakers Arcade is a regionally based artisan experience that began in 2014, where community and connection are enjoyed around a shared love for all types of art and creativity. San Diego's artist community is growing with unique expressions throughout the city, and Makers Arcade is our contribution to that ongoing movement that we appreciate and believe in so much.
