Our yearly call for makers is now open! This is your chance to have your project considered for display at the Bay Area Maker Faire coming up in May. You have to apply because there are just so many incredible projects and makers, and unfortunately there’s not enough space to have everyone.
To get a taste of what the Faire is like, check out these videos from popular youtube channels that visited last year.
Here are a few of the things we’re looking for, but we’re open to hearing about things we didn’t even think of.
- Robotics
- Electronics
- Design and Fabrication (both digital and analog)
- Shelters (tiny homes, tents, domes, etc.)
- Cosplay and Costumes
- Virtual and Augmented Reality
- Sustainability & Green Tech
- Innovations pertaining to Climate Protection
- Woodworking
- Artificial Intelligence
- Mixed and Augmented Reality
- Food Makers (not concessionaires, more info below)
- Homegrown Drones
- Science, Biology/Biotech, and Chemistry Projects
- Interactive, Kinetic Art Projects (tabletop to large-scale)
- Craft (all kinds)
- E-Textiles and Wearables
- Radios, Vintage Computers and Game Systems
- Puppets, Kites, Toys and Other Whimsical Creations
- Music Performances and Participation
- Unusual Tools or Machines
- How to Fix Things or Take them Apart (vacuums, clocks, washing machines, etc.)
