World Maker Faire New York 2011

The Close of World Maker Faire 2011

My closing moment of World Maker Faire 2011 took place inside Braindrop, a reflective sculpture by Kate Raudenbush, and I took this photo looking up at its chandelier. A perfect moment to remember a great event, and Braindrop is the perfect word to recall it.

Thanks to all the makers who created this Maker Faire with us. Thanks to the awesome Maker Faire crew who worked behind the scenes to create a smooth, supportive, and safe event. And finally, thanks to all of you who came out to enjoy Maker Faire this weekend. Everyone seemed so happy to be a part of it, and I was pleased to hear so many makers talking about all the interactions that they had with kids.

I hope everyone is inspired to keep learning to do and make new things until we do Maker Faire again next year.
