Resident Makers Leadership Program

The Resident Makers Leadership Program is a cooperatively led Maker training experience. Participants work in a collective way to learn about handcrafting, business and community service and commit a portion of the proceeds from goods made to support free community workshops on topics such as entrepreneurship, financial literacy and health and wellness education.  The Resident Makers also serve as coordinators for the key committees and areas of responsibility required to operate a successful pop-up and online store.
