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.

Rhode Island’s Mini Maker Faire is set for this Saturday, Aug. 10. For such a little state, organizers are planning a big fair to celebrate Yankee ingenuity.
First, the details: The fair will be held at the Pell Chafee Performance Center in Providence. MAKE book editor Brian Jepson is helping to organize the event so you know it’s going to be great. And the fair is happening inside AS220’s Foo Fest 2013 so it’s a twofer. Foo Fest is a fun-filled music, art, and food celebration. Admission is $7 and entrance to the fair is included.

Half an hour before the opening of the first Maker Faire in (Hannover) Germany we suspected it would be a success. A long queue of visitors stretched before the door. And the best thing for us was that so many families with children had gathered to admire the projects of the makers, the exhibitions, the performances, and flight shows.
