Maker Faire Bay Area 2025
Echoes of Light and Sound: Illuminating Family Stories Presented by WanFu Elementary School
Home: China
This exhibit is more than a display—it is a living makerspace of memory. Within each handcrafted story lamp, cut paper, glowing circuits, and recorded voices come together to hold stories of family, place, and time. Children and elders exchange memories that affirm identity, heal loneliness, and reveal the threads that bind us across generations. Rooted in STEAM and community practice, the Story Lamp Project carries a mission larger than art alone. It asks how we remember, how we belong, and how creativity can sustain us as a shared human family. In this space, light becomes both language and legacy, a gentle bridge between past and future. Here, storytelling is not bound by age, race, or culture. Each lamp becomes a vessel of history and emotion, illuminating the possibility of a more compassionate world—where making is not only about creating objects, but about creating bonds.
