2022 Fall Central Oregon Maker Faire

The Central Oregon Maker Faire will kick off with an Education Day, featuring a track for educators – both live and online. The educator session is open to teachers and community members interested in education opportunities. Students will have access to a variety of pre-faire, “activity stops,” to learn more about making, while educators will get access to content on how to create and evaluate maker and science-based activities, while also getting an understanding of how to motivate student-led opportunity. Access to educator and student sessions is free, but registration is required.

Friday will also feature the hanging and live judging for the Central Oregon Youth Artist Challenge, also in its second year. This challenge features submissions from students under the theme of: “What makes me, me.” The Faire will officially open at 5pm to the public with a Meet the Makers party and a live session of Ignite Bend involving local personalities.

SPECIAL BONUS: Youth attending Education Day will receive a code for a FREE 2-Day General Admission pass for the full Central Oregon Maker Faire. (must attend to receive code...code expires at midnight Friday)
