...COMING in 2022!

Simply put, a MakerSpace is a place where you can make things.  It's a place for hands-on learning - with all the tools for creativity. 

Visit us on Saturday May 14th at Franklin's Community Day Event at Odell Park!!!

From 10 am to 2pm Franklin Gear will have a pop-up makerspace at the Cottage in Odell Park.  This was originally built so that the park's custodian lived in the park.  It is a current home for Franklin Boy Scout Troup 61. Thanks go to the City of Franklin for letting us use it and to the Boy Scout for sharing their space for the day!

We will have several demonstrations taking place and you'll have a chance to meet Franklin Gear's Board of Directors and learn more about us and what's next!

​
​Every MakerSpace is different; but you will find a woodshop, a fabric arts studio, machine shop, 3D printers ... and more!
Note:  These photos are examples from MakerSpaces around the country.  Our space may look different and have a different assortment of equipment.  

Might our space contain a bike building & repair station, robotics, or a kiln?   

​How about Fiber Arts? We are talking industrial-rated sewing machines, computer-driven embroidery, a loom . . . members have a say!

Community

It is about belonging and caring about people and the way we treat each other. If you feel lonely or disconnected we may be the tribe you have been looking for.

In Memory of...

Small Business & Artisans

You are the backbone of society - the bootstrapper, the entrepreneur, the creative - putting it all on the line.  It can be scary, and lonely. 
​
​Put yourself in a place where people are just like you.  It is more than a shared space, it is a shared desire to make things better. 
Studio Space & Office Rental
Find strength in numbers!  The guy or girl next to you may not do what you do, but they know what it is like to be you.
​
Sometimes the best ideas appear when we share them with others.

Take a break.  It can be stressful, the drive to succeed.  Take a few minutes to be around others.  

Industry & Trades

A lot has changed in a generation.  Many were caught off guard, counting on things being the same.  But that never really happens.
​
 Further education was not needed - so they thought.  Learning must now be a constant.  There are people in your community that can do what you need, but don't know it. Talk alone will not change things.  We must do it!

Join us in finding those people and showing them what they are really capable of.  Build your community and it will help you build the future.
