2018 LCUSD School Maker Faire is coming on Saturday, April 14, 2018, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at La Cañada Elementary School.
A School Maker Faire is a mini version of a Maker Faire, which is part Science Fair and part something completely different! LCUSD School Maker Faire will be a gathering of individuals and teams who are interested in Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math. Interested "makers" come to Maker Faire to show what they have made and to share what they have learned. Everyone else comes to get some great ideas and to experience making, too! This event is free and a great way for all ages to spend a Saturday. Our district wants to start the Maker Movement by:
showcasing the making already taking place on our campuses
connect with larger creativity, innovation, STEAM, or art initiatives
cultivate awareness of the Maker movement
Watch this video to learn more about the Maker Movement.
If you are interested in sharing something you've made and presenting at our School Maker Faire, please fill out and submit this form ASAP!
