Revision as of 23:21, 19 April 2011
We have a place! Makers Local 256 opened its first not-in-someone's-apartment place in April of 2008. An archive of the places we looked at and the things we brainstormed can be found at We need a place 2008. ) Our place is currently 1000sqft, and while it's worked so far, it's evident that a larger place would be ideal.
We need a place where we can go and work on these projects in an environment that stimulates creativity and motivation.
The shop will provide a work area, resources, and knowledge to help people with their projects.
We need(ed) to Move
Here's a page for pre-move planning: We Need to Move
