Held annually, Mill City Skill Share is a day of entirely free community-led workshops held in Lowell, Massachusetts which actually predates the founding of our Makerspace. The event originated as a means to barter knowledge of a skill, rather than trade for their use. Each instructor offers their time and understanding of a particular skill through hands-on workshops or live demonstrations. In turn, each can benefit from the time devoted to sharing the year’s collective skillset by fellow instructors.
