From Oakland to Ottawa: The Serpent Twins Bring Their Magic to Canada
The 50-foot Serpents have made the pilgrimage to the Canadian capital for the 7th annual Maker Faire Ottawa this weekend.
Maker Faire is the Greatest Show (and Tell) on Earth — a family-friendly festival of invention, creativity, and resourcefulness, and a celebration of the maker movement.
Part science fair, part county fair, and part something entirely new, Maker Faire is an all-ages gathering of tech enthusiasts, crafters, educators, tinkerers, hobbyists, engineers, science clubs, authors, artists, students, and commercial exhibitors. All of these people come to Maker Faire to show what they have made and to share what they have learned.
