Summer Work at the AIC
June, 2017, final exams are ending, and our summer journey is just beginning. This is what happened to us as we started the next chapter in our odyssey towards our fully functioning Ashland Innovation Center. Along with another teacher, Ms. Henry, 5-6 student volunteers, and my own two kids, we tackled our dedicated space this summer and reinvented it as the AIC home. Our future hub of student ingenuity and creativity.
The process was slow and deliberate. About once a week I would send out an email to all of our volunteers indicating which day(s) I would be in Ashland to work on our space.

3D Design With Mindess Students
3D Design With Mindess Students
We had a blast working with the Mindess students this past Tuesday! Currently, we are working with the students enrolled in the Ashland Innovation Center's 3D Design course for Mindess students. This course introduces students to the materials and tools that we have here at AIC.
Funding thank yous!
We have had the great fortune of having community interest and support, both conceptually and financially. We'd like to take a moment to thank all of the organizations and people that have helped get The Ashland Innovation Center off the ground financially. Thank you to all of the following groups for their belief in what we are trying to do.
