Why Maker Fair?
Dale Dougherty, the father of Maker Fairs said:
"It’s an opportunity to get hands-on with new technology and tools. Makers love to share their clever and fascinating projects along with their know-how. More importantly, at Maker Faire we get to experience maker culture — its joy, enthusiasm, generosity, and optimism."
All Makers must fall into one of these categories:
1) I DIY! I Made something myself - and I can show you how. We even love the weird and whacky submissions!
2) I have a great hands on activity that will allow someone to learn a skill or make something to take home with them
3) I have a maker related event that would be fun to do/show at scheduled times during the event.
Want to help make this a great Maker Fair , but you don't have anything you want to show off?
We have volunteer openings of all sorts, you do not need to be a maker to support this.
