MakersFaire in Henderson this coming weekend


The Maker culture is alive and well, and will be especially visible this weekend, in Henderson, NV. 




What's that, you say? You can read more about it here, 


But for a much more personal experience, maybe you might want to consider attending the MakersFaire on Sunday, February 28 at the Henderson Convention Center. 

This event is shaping up to be pretty special - Makers from all over will be setting up booths and sharing their talents. My buddy Braxton, from Timber Manufacturing, will be setting up shop, and sharing some of his cool techniques, as well as his charming persona. 

As the Maker website says:

Maker Faire is the Greatest Show (and Tell) on Earth—a family-friendly showcase of invention, creativity and resourcefulness, and a celebration of the Maker Movement. It’s a place where people show what they are making, and share what they are learning.

Yours truly (me) will be joining a discussion panel at 4:30 at the Faire, we'll be discussing:  

Making “Making” a Business

 Doing what you love takes financial security. Meet a panel of locals who have been there, done that, and have special insights into making Making into a business, patents, and kick starters.

(BTW - I have a couple of free tickets to give away - if anyone needs one, let me know.)
