We’ve been waiting patiently for our new Makerspace, The Forge, to open. But, like everything else in 2020, the opening of our fantastic new space has been delayed due to COVID-19. And, while we’re getting closer, we’re not quite there yet!
In addition to all of this fun equipment, as you can see from the photos, we’ve got a really awesome space to work in! We are so excited to introduce you to The Forge and look forward to opening our doors to makers of all ages. Sit tight … we’re almost there!

For its fundraising effort, the project’s diverse elements are being bundled as “Forge Ahead: Library Makeover” – where the term ‘forge’ is both a tribute to the original use of the Municipal Center building as a metalworking factory, and a recognition of the library’s renovation through CTCC’s efforts.
