Make: television, Geek Squad and Science Museum of Minnesota are extremely excited to announce the first public event based on Make: television called Make: Day!
Make: Day celebrates the ingenuity and inventiveness in our community. Building off the success of Maker Faires and the American Maker events, Make: Day will give local engineers, artists, tinkerers and inventors the opportunity to showcase their DIY creations to Science Museum visitors.
Festivities will take place on Saturday, March 14th, from 10 am to 3 pm throughout the Science Museum's exhibit galleries. The event is included in the regular admission price and free to all members of the museum.
Here are some of the things you'll find:
- Dozens of other local talented Makers, several of which appear on the first season of Make: television
- All of the Maker Workshop projects including the Burrito Blaster and the DTV Antenna
- Demonstrations from Makers and musical performances emceed by our very own William Gurstelle
- Tons of hands-on activities for people of all ages
Stay tuned to makezine.tv for more info. If you have a project you'd like to exhibit, send us an email at maketelevision@makezine.com! Space is limited.
All of us here at Make: television wish to thank Geek Squad for their committed support of Make: television initiatives, visit our sponsor page for the story behind their support.
Two of my favorite things - MAKE and SMM - coming together. Finally a MAKE event that is close enough that I can afford to go! When I read that TPT would be producing MAKE TV I knew that it could only bring good things to the Twin Cities.
I'm excited and I'll see you there!
