Makers in Montpelier
Thursday March 19 // 10:00am to 2:00pm // room 11
Meet your friendly, neighborhood maker // the future of design and fabrication

Ever wondered how a 3D printer works? Keen to learn how a laser cutter generates livelihoods? Curious about automation and the future of woodworking? Join makers for a demo day at the Statehouse where you can see first- hand how changes in manufacturing are transforming the workplace and driving big changes in the economy.

Meet Vermont makers from around the state who apply creativity, technological savvy and entrepreneurial energy to solve problems and produce real value. From farming to fashion, education to recreation, makerspaces - member- driven communities built around light fabrication and assembly facilities - are the new face of light industry.

Please join legislative hosts Reps. Sam Young, Bill Botzow, Mary Hooper, and Tom Stevens and Sen. Tim Ashe for this exchange between makers and legislators who want to hear first hand about ways to support Vermont's creative economy and our growing community of design and fabrication entrepreneurs.
