๐ŸŒŸ Guiding Principles

Createโ€‹

You work with materials to make things. The outcome isnโ€™t fixed in advanceโ€”you find fulfillment in the act of creating itself.

Learnโ€‹

You observe and listen to the knowledge, skills, and attitudes of others. Everyone can learn from everyone.

Dareโ€‹

You try things youโ€™ve never done before, even if youโ€™re unsure whether youโ€™ll succeed. If something goes wrong, you approach it from a new angle.

Shareโ€‹

You show others what youโ€™re working on. You share your experiences, knowledge, and expertise with every member of the maker-learning community.

Careโ€‹

You take care of the materials, the people, and the space. You leave them in a better state than you found them.

Connectโ€‹

You are open to everyone. You bring people togetherโ€”with each other and with the maker-learning space. Together, we create a place where everyone feels involved.

Collaborateโ€‹

You work alongside others. You listen to their input and take it into account, respecting each otherโ€™s vision and abilities.

Exploreโ€‹

You reflect on challenges in living and working together today. You help search for solutions to those problems.
