Juice Works 3D

Spring bled so quickly into summer that, in case you missed it or we overlooked sharing the news, we are proud to share that Juice Works 3D was awarded the Shenandoah Valley Technology Council award for Innovation in Education. We are so grateful to be recipients of this award, and to be included as part of an all-star cast of fellow nominees including Blue Ridge Community College (Virginia) and James Madison University. Thank you also to The Daily News Record for including us in their piece about this amazing annual awards night. https://lnkd.in/e9qCsPhS

??A personal note from our Founder, Andrei Dacko, about how his creative brain didn't quite fit in school and even at work and why he started Juice Works 3D Innovation Academy - to provide rising innovators, both kids and adults, with access to a supportive, creative community focused on supporting the growth and development of tomorrow's innovators??

Meet Vivienne and Gus. ??They're pursuing their Silver level (Level 2) 3D printing qualification. ??That means, under Coach mentorship and supervision, they get to work on their own product design projects. Well, we challenged them with a Gold level (Level 3) product design challenge which means, instead of designing and manufacturing their own product, they got to do it for a real-world client to help solve a problem they have! ?? Their client was Kiki Scott, Owner of Embracing Fire Designs who said she is frustrated with not being able to find a cell phone holder that can hold her phone in a specific way that other holders cant. Well, Vivienne and Gus took those customer requirements and designed, modeled, and manufactured an amazing holder for Kiki! We are so proud of Gus (14 yo) and Vivienne (12 yo) for taking the skills they learned in their Iron level (Level 1) classes and leveraging them to create this product AND for getting the reaction they did from Kiki for their work. They're also our first ever Silver level students! ?????? If you're interested in joining Vivienne and Gus to learn these valuable creative digital skills so you can create your own products and solve problems for others too with applied design and digital fabrication, let us know! Fall classes begin soon. #productdesign #shortcircuitingskilldev

Friends, TODAY'S THE DAY - #GreatCommunityGive Day! One day of giving to help community non-profits, like our #JumpSTART education fund, raise funds for life-changing causes. ?? ?? ?? Making innovation accessible to all, especially youth, through our classes and camps in 3D printing, laser cutting, cnc milling and more, is our life-changing cause, and our JumpSTART education fund allows us to make it happen. Thank you to those who have already donated toward our $35k goal. Only $34,875 more to go! GIVE HERE: https://lnkd.in/edXeVMUM START is an acronym for Students That Are Ready To Tackle Tech and it's a life-changing cause because it allows future innovators like Paris (left) and Zendaya (right) to take learn-how-to-innovate classes in 3D Printing, CNC Milling, Game Design, and more at Juice Works 3D digital maker academy. ?? LET'S HELP DEVELOP OUR FUTURE-READY INNOVATORS, TOGETHER! ??
