TechTown (Wayne State University Research and Technology Park), Detroit’s premier business incubator, will take the first step toward establishing FAB Lab (Fabrication Arts Business Laboratory) in the Sugar Hill Arts District. The multi-use space catering to designers, artists and creative businesses will serve as an artist and small business incubator, with small office suites available to start-up companies at low rents. FAB Lab will also include a large gallery and event space for the use of members of the community for art exhibitions, cultural events and large gatherings.
