	<~~blockquote~~> Hacking usually has a negative connotation, but it can be used constructively. In some circles, it's a synonym for making, creating, and innovating. A hackerspace, also known as a makerspace, hacklab, or creative space, is a location where people with varied interests such as science, technology, art, craftsmanship, and computers meet to collaborate and socialize. Members of these spaces may have an interest in one or more of these topics and bring their knowledge, experience and projects to the group. In exchange, they have the opportunity to learn from others and collaborate on projects of all sorts.		<code> Hacking usually has a negative connotation, but it can be used constructively.

In exchange, they have the opportunity to learn from others and collaborate on projects of all sorts.

	This movement has come to the Knoxville area with the formation of a local makerspace, Knox Makers (http://www.knoxmakers.org). The group has been active in the area for nearly two years. In that time, the group has had dozens of workshops on topics that are as low tech as blacksmithing and making chainmail, to topics as high tech as using microprocessors for automatic digital control, or how to turn a 16 year-old rear projection screen television into a multi-touch interactive surface. The workshops are open to the public, and are usually scheduled for the first Tuesday and third Thursday of each month.

	Recently, Knox Makers has opened a 1,000 square foot makerspace at 1010 Commerce Park Drive in Oak Ridge. This space gives its members a place to share tools and other resources when working on projects. Currently, the space has some basic wood and metal working tools like saws, lathes, and a mill. There are projects in development to add 3D printers, a 40-watt laser cutter, and a server rack as available resources.

	Knox Makers will be hosting a grand opening event for this space on September 29, from 2-5 PM. They will be having a number of short presentations about upcoming workshops. Topics include the new Raspberry Pi Linux-based computer, canoe building, cloth dyeing, an introduction to the Arduino microcontroller, and more. There will also be demonstrations of projects currently in development at shop. This event is open to the public, anyone interested in learning more about the group is encouraged to visit them on the web.</~~blockquote~~>		Knox Makers will be hosting a grand opening event for this space on September 29, from 2-5 PM.
