As Springfield’s first coworking space, The Creative Foundry is providing a key component for quality of life and economic development.

Back in 1926, when Springfield served as the Birthplace of Route 66, our manufacturing prowess was the force that propelled us forward into the American Century. Today, our economy depends on a different kind of building, fueled by creativity, collaboration and ideas. The Creative Foundry is a hub to connect Springfield’s 21st century producers to the global network and each other. Together, we’re building a community that will serve as a workshop for melding ideas, sparking inspirations, forging connections and building great businesses.

Located at 325 W. McDaniel, at the corner of W. McDaniel & S. Campbell, The Creative Foundry is a bright, spacious workspace in a convenient downtown location.
