The New Orleans Mini Maker Faire and Bricolage Academy are hosting a launch party tonight for the science, engineering and arts event that’s been dubbed “the greatest show-and-tell on Earth.”
Held at NOLA Brewing’s Taproom from 6 to 8 p.m., the education fundraiser and launch event will benefit Bricolage Academy, a tuition-free, open-enrollment public school in Uptown New Orleans.
The launch party will provide details of the upcoming 2015 Maker Faire, which will gather entrepenuers together for hands-on activities in science, tech, engineering performance and crafts. The first annual NOLA Maker Faire, also hosted by Bricolage, attracted over 1,000 tech enthusiasts, engineers, students and more during the spring.
Maker Faire was originally established by Make Magazine in California. It currently takes place in more than 100 cities around the world.
