We have a makerspace in the junior high (6-8). We are located in Gridley and are the El Paso Gridley School District which is Central Illinois (about 30 minutes north of Bloomington/ Normal). If you want to travel you are welcomed to come down and visit.

I heard that Lake Forest has a maker space in their libraries. Our principal was looking into it, but don't have any info. yet.
You could try contacting them.

Hi everyone!

Our district would like to send the PreK-2, Grade 3-5, and Grade 6-8 Library Media Specialists to see a Maker Space in a school. (A total of 3 Librarians).

Do any of you have a Maker Space  in your K-8 school that the three of us could come visit?  Near to us in Lincolnwood is ideal, but not necessary. Lincolnwood is a small suburb - shares a border with Chicago on the northwest side, near Morton Grove, Skokie, Evanston, etc.

It would be especially helpful to see how a Maker Space works in a K-8 building.

If you love your Maker Space and it's NOT near us, please email me anyway:-) We mostly  just hope to see one that you love!


Thank you very much.
