This weekend we visited the Maker Faire held at the New York Hall of Science. It's a yearly two-day festival where tons of "makers" (crafters, hobbyists, tech lovers, engineers, etc..) showcase what they've made.
The faire is advertised as the "greatest show and tell on earth." Oh boy, it definitely lived up to that title. We visited the faire for about four hours... and only saw about about half of the exhibits. Crazy, right? Not going to lie...it was difficult maneuvering through all the exhibits with a super active two year old... but I really am thankful that we were able to attend. It was truly awesome to see so many people passionate about making things with their hands. I left feeling quite inspired (and exhausted...oof).
Here are some photos from the day:
