From Burdick:

“We want to create a JP Makers space consistent with the ideals and philosophy of the maker culture.  We’re thinking about a space that will encourage and promote the exploration of DIY technology, nurture a collaborative community of makers, host unique events and classes, provide workshop space for rent, and access to well maintained equipment such as 3D printers, small scale fabrication, CNC machines and other cool tools.”
