TODAY IS THE DAY! Come on out for a GREAT TIME!
Call for Makers is now Open. Fresno Mini Maker Faire April 29th at Fresno Grizzlies stadium.
We would love to see this at our Fresno Mini Maker Faire
We have a date! April 29th at Chukchansi Park. Start getting those projects ready. Sign ups are coming soon. Limited number of vendors will also be accepted.
Get those applications in for Bay Area Maker Faire! First round of Call for Makers closes Sunday 2/18 at 11:59pm! https://makerfaire.com/bay-area/call-for-makers/
This is a Bucket List event for everyone that has ever had an idea to make, improve, or upcycle anything! There is a Maker in all of us. Maker Faires showcase those that go beyond the idea stage and share their triumphs, failures, and processes, often giving you hands-on instruction. https://www.facebook.com/events/1654339771276591
Wow! We have some amazing Makers coming to show you what they do! We also are adding several activities to learn hands-on how to make. Maker Faires are where imaginations get stirred, and creativity explodes! Keep checking the webpage for updates to makers. Remember...there are ways to get in free.
Starting to think about Fresno Mini Maker Faire 2018! We will be looking for help with promotion, maker relations, sponsors, day of volunteers, etc. Can you help?
We would love to have someone make this! Bring it and get into the Maker Faire free...then let the kids use it...win-win.
Stay up to date on the makers that will be at the Maker Faire.
We're getting some great makers signing up. Come shape some metal with Andrew
Search "California" for upcoming maker faires. Looks like Oct 7 is next ones. San Diego was light on makers last year, but access to all the museums made it worth while. East Bay is always a fun one.
NEXT UP....April 2 - Benicia Mini Maker Faire
For those of you that attended our 5th Annual Fresno Mini Maker Faire....THANK YOU! Please fill out this survey about your experience so we can continue to improve next year. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/FresnoMMF2017_attendee
Looking for volunteers. We have some hands-on activities that won't happen if we don't have more people. What better way to enjoy the Maker Faire, than to dive right in as a maker helper!
Just waiting on our official makerfaire website to be handed over, then we will announce the Call for Makers. We are looking for people to share any projects, whether complete or just started, that you can show your process and answer questions to inspire others to make.

To clear up confusion...To keep prices down our venue is graciously provided by the Grizzlies. A ticket to the game includes the Mini Maker Faire and a reserved seat. But, bring a cardboard creation to show (or a Nerdy Derby car to race) and you will be admitted FREE !!! A table will be available for the cardboard projects so you dont need to carry them with you. Please label them, and take yours with you when you go. Not responsible for projects getting rehomed (taken).
Drones, robots, tardis, glass, ceramics, computers, destruction, creation, Nerdy Derby, Cardboard Challenge, and Craftapalooza at Mini Maker Faire!!! oh... and more... LOTS more!!!
Just a couple days now until the big show. We've got makers of every stripe, from robots to fiber arts and from film makers to wood workers. Being makers, we've spent so much time putting the event together that we've neglected this page to an embarrassing extent. But it's all good, right? Here you are looking for info and here it is... Chukchansi Park Sunday, April 17 Noon to 5pm... Make something cool out of cardboard and get in free!!! See you at the Chuk!
Come to the Fresno Mini Maker Faire Sunday afternoon and see not just the coolest makers in town, but the coolest handcrafters in the valley as Craftapalooza joins us for the big show!
Local robot team needs your support!!! For a homeschool team to compete in FIRST robotics is no small achievement. For them to not only compete, but excel, t...hat's huge. But, for that team to qualify for a spot in the world championships in St Louis? That's just amazing! As a small team with no school to back them up, they're looking to us for support. After seeing their work ethic, teamwork, and fearless enthusiasm all season as they built their robot at The Fresno Ideaworks and overcame every challenge thrown their way, we can tell you, these kids have earned this! Join us in donating to their cause. Follow the link below and help send them off to the champs!
***You can buy a ballgame ticket for a reserved seat, or all makers that bring a cardboard creation (Google for ideas) are admitted free to the maker faire! We will have an area near the Fresno Library booth for display, then you dont have to carry it around with you. Now go get creative!!!***
Poster time!!! Download it, print 'em up, and splatter them all over town!!! Stay tuned to this page, maker teasers are coming up!
Call to maker's is still open! Use the Sign Up button right under the header.
MAKER'S: Please make sure you signed up using the 2016 form. Prior to April 3rd, the signup button on this page was incorrect.
