The first Odessa Mini Maker Fair is due to take place in Odessa, on August 14. It is a festival of inventors, engineers, makers and people who create different things, mechanisms and gadgets with their own hands. The format of the festival is called Show&Tell that means your whole family should come there and ask questions, listen to professionals, create something with your own hands and get inspired with your own creativity and making.
The main task of Maker Fair is to unite makers from different places and with different skills and aspirations. As the founder of Maker Fair tends to say – the main thing we should maintain and spread is this kind of “maker’s way of thinking” that consists in the ability to create something independently and not to be afraid of trying, sharing and learning new things.
