Petiția este adresată către: Community members, voters, and local influencers, Huerfano County Board of Commissioners City of Walsenburg officials Local school districts and educational partners Potential funders, grantmakers, and economic development organizations
We want to preserve the existing makerspace in Huerfano County and grow it into the full Skillworks Innovation Center—a community hub for creativity, hands-on learning, workforce development, and entrepreneurship.
We ask local community members, leaders, funders, and decision-makers to support the permanent establishment and expansion of the makerspace into the Skill works Innovation Center.
motive
Walsenburg and the surrounding Huerfano County area face limited opportunities for youth, job-seekers, and aspiring entrepreneurs. The current makerspace has already shown what’s possible—offering classes in 3D printing, laser cutting, printing,STEAM and more.
Skillworks Innovation Center would expand this into a full-scale facility that supports:
- Local job creation and workforce readiness
- Youth STEAM education and engagement
- Small business incubation and entrepreneurship
- Sustainable technologies and trades training
- Tourism and regional economic revitalization
This is more than a workshop—it’s a place for people of all ages to learn, build, and thrive together.
We believe that a rural town deserves access to the same innovation and opportunity as any city. Help us show that our community wants—and needs—Skillworks.
Vă mulțumim pentru sprijin, Wheelhouse Makerspace, 81089
