The Baton Rouge Mini Maker Faire is a community festival that brings together science, art, craft, homesteading, and makers of all kinds.
This family-friendly event showcases the amazing work of all kinds of makers across the Baton Rouge area and beyond—anyone who is embracing the DIY or DIT (do-it-together!) spirit and wants to share their accomplishments with an appreciative audience.
Since previous Faires have been attended by thousands of people, we’re taking a different approach this year and going virtual! We’re planning a day of panels, presentations, and demonstrations that will be available from anywhere with an Internet connection. The Maker Faire will take place over October 18th-23rd. We’re looking for a mix of live and pre-recorded content. We’ll also be highlighting makers in the leadup to the Faire.
The first step to participating in the Maker Faire is to submit an entry that tells us about yourself and your project. Entries can be submitted from individuals; groups such as hobbyist clubs and schools; commercial makers or crafters; startups; and companies.
Here’s some suggested ideas for topics that we’re looking for:
