The American Gas and Steam Engine Museum Is Hosting a Mini Maker Faire

The San Diego Makers Guild will be staging the North County Mini Maker Faire at the American Gas and Steam Engine Museum (AGSEM) in Vista on June 18 and 19. We feel strongly that one big Maker Faire downtown in Balboa Park isn’t enough for our bustling maker city. North County is an area that’s rich with makers and full of making activity. Along with AGSEM, we will hold a celebration of making in North County. Tickets are available online or at the door.

Why at AGSEM? If you’ve been there then you already know. The Antique Gas and Steam Engine Museum focuses on the 1840’s through 1920’s with exhibits of tools and equipment from an era where everyone was a maker. What better place to celebrate making!?

North County Maker Faire will be within AGSEM’s Antique Engine & Tractor Show.  They’ll have a tractor parade, demonstrations of milling and weaving and blacksmithing and more, wagon rides, food, and fun galore. For the price of admission to the Show you get Maker Faire for free. Modern makers in the context of the museum’s annual celebration just makes sense.

Bring Dad on Sunday and his ticket is free on Father’s Day!
