In many ways, Bloomington, Indiana is the perfect community to showcase the maker movement. There is, of course, a large art community using digital fabrication, 3D printers, screen printing, laser cutters, CNCs, and loads of other innovative art techniques. There is also an interest in recycling and “upcycling” as Bloomingtonians have a drive to reduce waste and live intentionally. And being a college town, as a community we love to learn, explore, build, and make.
