Every town needs this app!

Maker Town is fantastic! I moved away from Cleveland, and this app allows me to see features from all of my favorite Cleveland artists in one place. I am typically a procrastinator but already made some Christmas purchases. I also love that it includes upcoming events. Every town needs Maker Town!

Fantastic Local Find

I love finding local, unique artists and small business. MakerTown is a great way to browse for them in one place. I found a clothing store I loved, Erie & Anchor. I drove out to their cute store this weekend and bought my favorite new sweatshirt. Thanks, MakerTown!
