Maker Faire is a gathering of fascinating, curious people who enjoy learning and who love sharing what they can do.

We're back for another year of celebrating makers, tinkerers, technologists, inventors, and more! From engineers to artists to scientists to crafters, Maker Faire is a venue for these "makers" to show hobbies, experiments, projects. We call it the Greatest Show (& Tell) on Earth - a family-friendly showcase of invention, creativity, and resourcefulness.

Glimpse the future and get inspired!

For disability accommodations, call 479.856.7050 or email centerforinnovation@faylib.org 2-3 days before a program. Plan your visit by viewing our building map and details on accessibility services.
