It’s been just over a month since this year’s RI Mini Maker Faire, but only a couple weeks since we decided to do it all over again with another mini-RI Mini Maker Faire at the BIF-6 conference in Providence, RI.

Here are some videos, posts, and pictures from Mini Maker Faire RI. If you have more, please post them in the comments!

A big thanks to our partners for helping make this happen: MAKE, WaterFire, Cutler&Company, RI Nexus, CrowdVine, Greater Kennedy Plaza, and Cronk Software.

We couldn’t have done this without our sponsor Ximedica, who provided us with the funding needed to make this event happen and help us be ready for next year. Our Kickstarter backers and PayPal donors also put some fuel in our tank; thank you!

And of course, we couldn’t have done it without the makers who exhibited. Thank you! We’ll be back next year, and hope to have the dates set soon!
