Jim McKean [James McKean Violinmaker]doesn't just work with wood—he builds handcrafted instruments right here at 112 Quality Lane. The MINT gives Rutland's makers, trade workers, entrepreneurs, and artisans access to the specialized tools, space, and community needed to build real skills and high-level work.

Rutland is quietly building its own future, and we are proud to provide the space where people learn by doing.
