Mission Statement

COcreate Erie, located on Erie’s historic Schofield Farm, is an inclusive nonprofit makerspace that empowers people of all ages with workspace, tools, education, and collaboration. We foster creativity, innovation, and lifelong learning in a supportive, welcoming community.

Description

CO-Create Erie is an inclusive nonprofit makerspace rooted in the heart of Erie, Colorado-one of the fastest growing suburbs in America. Our mission is to empower individuals of all ages and backgrounds through access to tools, mentorship and education in a collaborative, welcoming environment.

From hobbyists and artists to entrepreneurs and students, CO-Create Erie fosters creativity, innovation and lifelong learning in a supportive community space. Our vision is to have an open-workshop environment divided into two rooms: one side dedicated to woodworking and one side for ceramics, sewing, 3D printing, electronics, laser cutting, printmanking and other fine arts. Our nonprofit will offer classes, peer-led workshops, prototyping tools, and equipment that promote STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) disciplines, sustainability and self-expression.

As a volunteer-run, member-driven organization, we rely on our members and on the generosity of sponsors and community partners to make this vision a reality. Your support helps provide tools, resources, and programming that unlock opportunities for learning, connection, collaboration and economic growth.
