The Vancouver Mini Maker Faire is coming!

I’ve been getting all worked up about it over the last couple of weeks. Attending volunteer meetings, I’m hearing things like “Robot Petting Zoo” and “Bacon making workshop,” so I’m thinking it’s going to be my cup of tea (and yours if you’re a reader of my blog.) Sean Arden and Myron Campbell of the Emily Carr Masters Program will be presenting their work at the Faire, among hundreds of other exhibitors and workshop holders.

The event organizers talk a lot about the various DIY communities in Vancouver and their strength individually, and hope that in holding this event which brings them all together, we can unify the overall community in Vancouver. It’s an incredible idea, where they’ve spotted a need, and are creating something to serve it. (Design thinking? Discuss.)
