Maker Faire: It's a Wrap!
I’m still recovering from Maker Faire last weekend. What a trip! Justin and I set up our booth outside of Union Station on Saturday and Sunday and crossed our fingers for decent weather. Our booth was packed! We estimated that approximately 300+ people stopped by despite the heat, humidity and strong winds. We had a non-stop crowd for most of the day.
Overall, Maker Faire was an amazing experience. I met so many teachers, artists, engineers, musicians, therapists, and makers who loved Coloratura and wanted to share it with others. I was invited to schools, libraries and even a birthday party. Our project also won a ‘Maker of Merit’ blue ribbon, which was a lovely surprise.
The best part of the whole weekend was watching people’s expressions when they tried Coloratura for the first time. It was such a joy watching so many people interact with Coloratura in various ways.
