Designed to showcase modern manufacturing which is high-tech, clean, diverse, and sustainable, the Makers on the Move bus will visit manufacturing facilities, colleges, and high schools across the state to highlight the innovative manufacturing sector and amazing job opportunities that are available today.
EVERYWHERE. Okay, maybe not... but on Friday, October 6th the Illinois Manufacturers' Association and IMEC will be embarking on a eight-day “Makers on the Move” bus tour across Illinois to celebrate Manufacturing Month. Join us for a stop or take a picture of the bus while we are enjoying the country (and city) views of our great state! Event details and stops are listed below in the event schedule.
