Have you ever been to a Maker Faire? Maker Faire’s are held through out the world and they’re all about creating, inventing, learning  and leaving inspired and full of ideas to take home.  These faires are multi-generational and encourage kids and adults to get outside (or inside) and build something, anything! From robots, to cat armor, better prosthesis’ to crazy cars there really is no limit to what is seen, heard and experienced at a Maker Faire.  Exhibits are in the areas of engineering, ham radio, kinetic art, furniture, crafts, space, steampunk, rockets, GPS and wearables just to name a few.

Denver is having it’s first Mini Maker Faire, and, guess who’s coming to dinner!? Denver Sewing Collective was invited and we even had a lovely, anonymous donor donate our booth to us. The Denver Mini Maker Faire will be in just a few short days, May 3-4, 2014.

If you have ever been to a Maker Faire please tell me what you thought, or if you have any ideas that you think the Denver Sewing Collective should do (in way of sewing, wearables, up-cycling, crafts etc) please let me know!

Stay tuned, I’ll be sharing my adventures with DMMF here on the blog.
