At Bilbao Maker Faire 2024, attendees experienced a powerful blend of tradition and innovation, 35+ ceramic portraits created using Jetclay 3D printing by FabLab Bilbao. Throughout the year, FabLab has collaborated with La Ribera de Deusto’s factory workers, entrepreneurs, and neighbors, capturing their stories and preserving their likenesses through open-source making. These sculptures now form a compelling public exhibition at Espacio Open Cultural Center, honoring the neighborhood’s industrial legacy. What we love about this project is its ability to showcase how digital fabrication and community storytelling can work together to preserve history tangibly. 🔗 Read more about how makers are keeping history alive in Make: Magazine.

About us
Part science fair, part county fair, and part something entirely new, Maker Faire is an all-ages gathering of tech enthusiasts, crafters, educators, tinkerers, hobbyists, engineers, science clubs, authors, artists, students, and commercial exhibitors. All of these “makers” come to Maker Faire to show what they have made and to share what they have learned. The launch of Maker Faire in the Bay Area in 2006 demonstrated the popularity of making and interest among legions of aspiring makers to participate in hands-on activities and learn new skills at the event. 200,000 people annually attend the two flagship Maker Faires in the Bay Area and New York, with an average of 44% of attendees first timers at the Bay Area event, and 61% in New York. In 2017, over 190 independently-produced “Mini Maker Faires” plus over 30 larger-scale Featured Maker Faires will have taken place around the world, including Tokyo, Rome, Shenzhen, Taipei, Seoul, Paris, Berlin, Barcelona, Detroit, San Diego, Milwaukee, and Kansas City. Maker Faire is primarily designed to be forward-looking, showcasing makers who are exploring new forms and new technologies. But it’s not just for the novel in technical fields; Maker Faire features innovation and experimentation across the spectrum of science, engineering, art, performance and craft. Maker Faire is a gathering of fascinating, curious people who enjoy learning and who love sharing what they can do. It’s a venue for makers to show examples of their work and interact with others about it. Many makers say they have no other place to share what they do. DIY (Do-It-Yourself) is often invisible in our communities, taking place in shops, garages and on kitchen tables. It’s typically out of the spotlight of traditional art or science or craft events. Maker Faire makes visible these projects and ideas that we don’t encounter every day.

#storie: 𝐄𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐚, 𝐈𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐳𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐞 𝐮𝐧 𝐕𝐢𝐚𝐠𝐠𝐢𝐨 𝐜𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐦𝐛𝐢𝐚 𝐥𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐥 𝐆𝐢𝐨𝐜𝐨 Immagina di trasformare una sfida personale in un’idea rivoluzionaria. Di partire per un viaggio che non è solo fisico, ma anche mentale ed emozionale. È ciò che è successo a Frida e Amélie, i progetti vincitori dell’ultima edizione di Make to Care - il #contest di #MakerFaireRome in collaborazione con #Sanofi - che sono volati in Catalogna per esplorare un ecosistema di innovazione tra i più vivaci d’Europa. 🚀 🔹 #Frida reinventa il concetto di dispositivo medico: un corsetto che non è solo funzionale, ma anche esteticamente attraente, trasformando un’esigenza terapeutica in un simbolo di #empowerment. 🔹 #Amélie dà voce a chi non può comunicare con facilità, usando la tecnologia dell’eye-tracking per costruire ponti tra le persone e abbattere le barriere della Sindrome di Rett. Questo viaggio è stato un’occasione per conoscere realtà innovative, un vero e proprio acceleratore di possibilità. Idee che prendono forma, connessioni che diventano opportunità, innovazione che si nutre di empatia. Ci auguriamo che gli incontri avvenuti possano dar vita a collaborazioni durature e che questi progetti continuino a crescere, migliorando la qualità della vita di tante persone. Noi di Maker Faire Rome siamo qui per raccontare cosa accade i nostri maker dopo aver partecipato all'evento 👉 𝐕𝐮𝐨𝐢 𝐬𝐜𝐨𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐝𝐢 𝐩𝐢𝐮̀ 𝐬𝐮 𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐨 𝐯𝐢𝐚𝐠𝐠𝐢𝐨?

At Maker Faire Bay Area 2023, innovation wasn’t just in the exhibits, it was on stage, too! For this #MakerMonday, we’re thrilled to highlight The Traveling Spectacular, a world-class vaudeville show that blends magic, comedy, circus acts, and aerial stunts. Their handcrafted mobile pop-out stage is a masterpiece in itself, proving that artistry and engineering go hand in hand. 🎪✨

Maker Monday spotlight today is Daisuke Samejima, a Japanese painter who pushes the boundaries of visual storytelling. His “flatball” paintings capture entire landscapes in spherical form as if seen through a fisheye mirror or suspended in a drop of water. Using acrylics, oils, and meticulous detail, Daisuke’s work is a testament to the fusion of creativity and precision. #MakerMonday #ArtInnovation #DaisukeSamejima #VisualStorytelling #CreativeDesign #Meetthemaker
