Who We Are
We are a community dedicated to fostering inventors, crafters, designers, engineers and artists, located at 233 Cherry St., Ithaca, New York.
We envision a future where each and every person, regardless of background, has access to the tools and the training they need to make their dreams a reality. By operating and maintaining a physical campus, we help bring to life the vision and passions of community members. By offering classes, we introduce a new generation of makers to cutting edge techniques alongside traditional wood and metal-craft. By hosting social events and open-houses, we cultivate a community of artists, engineers, designers, students, builders, fabricators, and teachers to find new connections and produce “AH-HA!” moments.
Our mission is to bring people together around their passions and interests while promoting the joys and values of making, in all its forms. To cultivate a problem-solving mindset and become a hub for endeavors which build a thriving, robust local and regional economy which celebrates the arts and sciences.
“Imagination, seeded by knowledge and sown in community, enables our creative nature to bloom.”
We value ingenuity, vision, tenacity, flexibility, patience, curiosity & imagination.
