Pretty much anything, we are told. In this case, on both Thursday and Friday, you can take a break from the major events and drop in to check it out! See below for what is in store for this MakerSpace room:

  • Sample artifacts from a Maker Faire held last month:  a nixie clock, a small 512-LED animated cube, a 4-foot Jacob’s Ladder and various electronic projects–all courtesy of MakerSpaceCT.
  • A stop motion animation table, some e-textiles, and other items from YOUmedia, Hartford Public Library.
  • A continuous video loop of entries to the Reel Youth Hartford Film Festival.

Reel Youth Hartford Film Festival Screening Room

Additionally in this room will be a movie screening area where films produced by Reel Youth Hartford Film Festival will be looping! Come drop in, sit down, enjoy some popcorn and watch some locally produced films by Hartford youth!

And why is all this at our Trade Show and Conference?
Bryan Patton of MakerSpaceCT will participate in the workshop
DIY, MakerSpaces & Community Media: Where is the intersection & how to collaborate at 10:45am on Friday in the Technology & New Media track.

Representatives from YOUmedia and Reel Youth Hartford Film Festival
will join the discussion about Connecting Community through Youth Engagement at 2:oopm (also Friday) in the Best Practices track.

It’s another way we show and tell.
