From the US Industrial Revolution to a Mini Maker Faire
Rhode Island: home to a thriving community of Makers. This weekend they’ll gather at the Rhode Island Mini Maker Faire.
Maker Faire
Maker Faire is the Greatest Show (and Tell) on Earth โ 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 peopleย come to Maker Faire to show what they have made and to share what they have learned.
