Chicago North Side Mini Maker Faire Saturday, May 18

Tagged With: Chicago, coding, DIY, makerspace, STEAM, STEM

Great news! Not only is this Saturday Scratch Day, but it’s also Chicago’s Northside Mini Maker Faire.


Scratch Day runs from from 9-2 at West Ridge Elementary School and the MMF goes from 10-4 at Schurz High School–they’re about 20 minutes apart by car, so there’s a window of opportunity to experience both.

The MMF looks like a lot of fun, featuring everything from bread to hair braiding and lock-picking. Click the link above to see a list of makers who will be exhibiting.

I’m not sure we’ll make it, but we’re gonna try. See you there?
