Bay Area event: East Bay Mini Maker Faire

Sunday, local teachers are invited to the East Bay Mini Maker Faire. Contact me for a 35% off discount code the organizers have offered our teachers. (Make sure you let me know where you teach!)

We're thrilled when people riff on the Maker Faire model and come up with their own twist. Last January, our friends at the Park Day School in Oakland approached us about putting together an East Bay Mini Maker Faire on their campus. Now that October 24th is nearly upon us, looking at their lineup there's nothing "mini" about the event! Check out their site....

and their list of Makers. Dale Dougherty will be speaking, and I believe he plans to announce the plans for the next season of the Young Makers Program.

Here's Gareth's brief post on the EBMMF on makezine earlier this month:

Coming soon, we're looking forward to what the organizers can share with us on Make:Education about organizing such a large-scale mini Maker Faire!
