You can’t keep a good geek down.
Chilly temperatures and a light rain did not deter thousands of folks from descending on the Westport Library, Jesup Green and Bedford Square, for today’s 6th annual Maker Faire.
Every type of STEM creation was represented: robots, 3-D designs, flight simulators, submersibles and more.
The arts were there too: violinists, jewelry makers, sculptors…
And of course local organizations: the Y, Wakeman Town Farm and Rotary Club were among those showing their commitment to creativity and community.
In 6 short years, the Maker Faire has become one of the biggest events of the Westport year. Now all we need is some young guy or girl who can control the weather.
Which I’m sure we’ll see next spring.
STEM doesn’t have any STEAM without the A for the Arts!!!!
