May Maker Faire Auditions this Sunday!

March 5, 2009 by Minnie Leave a Comment

makerfaire09If you haven’t been to a Maker Faire I highly recommend it! If you don’t live close enough for that to be practical you can always enjoy Maker goodness on the Make web site, Maker.tv, or a zine subscription!

Calling All Makers – Auditions for Maker Faire 2009 to be held on Sunday, March 8

In preparation for this year’s event, a team from MAKE magazine (www.makezine.com) will be scheduling 15-minute appointments at The Tech Museum of Innovation in San Jose, March 8th, from noon to 4pm, to preview, and meet with, potential makers, crafters and inventors from the area.

“We’re looking for anyone who has something fun to share, something they’ve made with their hands,” explains Dale Dougherty, Publisher & Editor of MAKE magazine. “It can be practical or impractical–it could be something simple like a creative costume or maybe some handmade jewelry. Or it could be something wild like a bike with ten wheels, or a dog-powered lawn mower. Whatever it is, the more creative and imaginative, the better!”

Audition Details:
When: Sunday, March 8th, 2009 (noon – 4pm)
Where: The Tech Museum of Innovation 201 South Market Street San Jose, CA 95113-2008 (408) 795.6225
Admission: FREE
Contact for Auditions and to schedule a 15-minute appointment: Sherry Huss, (707) 827-7074 or [email protected]

Independent Crafters Information

On the Indie Crafts section of CraftGossip I like to support other indie artists by posting tips about running a handmade business, blogging and other helpful information. Once a week I try to feature handmade shops to showcase their work. I also like to share trendy, popular DIY's that I think are amazing and hope you do as well. If you are an Independent Artist or want to start a handmade business, this is the place to find resources. Or if you just love DIY's and everything crafty I hope you'll find some fun projects to make and be inspired by the artists I feature!
