The Dublin Maker Faire
Science Gallery / NUI Maynooth / Irish Robotics Club
Dublin
In recent years, a Do-It-Yourself (DIY) mindset has emerged as a powerful cultural movement. At the nexus of art and technology it is driving a renaissance in designing, creating and building. The mindset involved is hands-on, it is experimental, empirical, iterative, and above all; creative. This July and September, The Dublin Maker Faire will showcase many incredible, creative and thought-provoking projects. Incredible home spun innovations will be presented, bringing together, artists, scientists, technologists, crafts people, and makers in all walks of life from all over Ireland and internationally. It will be a recurring annual event which will bring together smart, creative, entrepreneurial people who may not otherwise meet in a process which will nourish an active maker culture and seed a generation of makers and doers.
