Our goal with the renovation and restoration of Norway’s old snowshoe factory is to build an evolving hotspot of local collaboration and statewide coordination.

Lights Out’s new location will soon be home to dozens of small businesses, local organizations, artists, makers, and educators. 

There are four zones planned for the factory renovation and restoration, each with its own use.

In the historic factory building, the first floor will be dedicated to shared office and studio space. 

A multi-purpose dance studio will take up the second floor.

The newer warehouse building, built in the 1970’s, will become a gallery and event space. 

The daylight basement will be dedicated to a community makerspace and tool library.
