Tennesseans have nurtured vibrant maker communities across the state. This session, moderated by Alexis Willis of the Chattanooga Chamber of Commerce, will explore different ways that organizations have supported, inspired, and connected makers within their respective communities, and between communities. Panelists will discuss strategies, programs, and resources that were deployed; partners who were engaged in that process; challenges we encountered; and some lessons learned from the past few years of making.
