Creator Square is designed to be the keystone that connects Johnstown's creative community, industrial infrastructure, and entrepreneurial activity by establishing a focal presence in downtown's Central Park. As a result of its presence and initiatives, subsequent partnerships between makers, education, and industry will provide the next stage of innovation as Johnstown embraces the new manufacturing economy of the future.

 

Creator Square is currently in the developmental stage of its growth. In under a year, the program already has the strong support of local business partners, financial institutions, and nonprofits. It is currently seeking local makers, artisans, and creators to start the conversation, to understand the needs of artists, and to establish the beginnings of this Maker Network.
