- KnoxMakers is a diverse group of enthusiastic learners and makers. Membership is open to the general public, and anyone interested in sharing a collaborative learning process is encouraged to apply. KnoxMakers is an East Tennessee MakerSpace and Hackerspace group formed from the popular global DIY movements established by Make, the same group responsible for the world's largest DIY convention MakerFaire. While many projects are focused on technology, a range of projects, workshops, and activities run the gamut from crafting with hand tools to the arts. KnoxMakers, located in Oak Ridge, allows registered members to share tools, projects, and learning experiences. (James's initial sample draft, 100 words)
