Any event or activity that happens on the property of another orgnization. For example tours of factories, or other community events that we feature.
A makerspace is a membership-based organization that gives its members access to professional equipment and resources to conceptualize and create incredible projects. More than that, the maker movement is one that encourages the communal sharing of ideas, innovation, and collaboration. Makers create their passion projects while learning different machines and techniques that build lifelong skills.
Elements of Making: Ideation to Creation - a forthcoming juried exhibition at Ben Parker Studio - offers makers a venue to display their works, and to discuss their process, ideas, and future endeavors. Expert jurors will select works that show: a) an artistic quality, b) an understanding of industrial processes, and c) the maker’s drive to innovate. Participants are encouraged to experiment and share their successes and failures as equally important parts of the process.
Elements of Making is a celebration of Connecticut makers and includes support from MakerspaceCT, MakeHaven, Spark Makerspace, and Fairfield County Makers Guild. By bringing together these communities of like-minded creatives, this exhibit will emphasize the artistry of maker creations.
The exhibit runs July 31st through September 9th at Ben Parker Studio. Come see compelling and creative works from the maker community!
