The Makerspace

The Makerspace

The Local Makers Hub is a growing group of makers, producers, and farmers from Winchendon and Gardner spearheading the design of a shared commercial kitchen and crafting space.

The goal of the Makers Hub is to increase access to valuable resources for local small businesses, cottage industries, or hobbyists while increasing engagement in the community through intergenerational skillshare classes and vendor events.

For a small membership fee, makers will have access to shared commercial equipment, storage space, professional development resources, and a community of support.
