Youth Program
As of July 1, 2015, the Compass Project, became a program of Engine. The Compass Project was formerly a program of Spurwink, a behavioral health agency and prior to that, had its own non-profit status. The transition was facilitated by Spurwink to find a home with a more design-and-maker-oriented mission. Engine’s interest in supporting and growing the young maker community dovetails with the experiential and project-based learning focus of the program. The Compass Project’s shop is generously housed at Biddeford High School and be available to Biddeford students as well as students from outside the city.
