Do you know how area manufacturers create their products and the technology used to do so? Companies in the Creative Corridor from Cedar Rapids to Washington are opening their doors to the public to show just how things work. Tera Pickens, director of the Kirkwood Washington Regional Center, explains the Advancing the Future Tour will be held October 19th to 22nd and it is a chance to highlight the manufacturing sector in the corridor and jobs in the area.

Bazooka Farmstar and ACH Foam Technologies in Washington are participating. For a complete tour schedule and map click here.
