Jeff Baron, Minister of National Security, speaks at a previous Youth Makers faire

A two-day event is celebrating Bermuda’s young makers.

The first ever Youth Maker Faire, tomorrow and Sunday just outside the entrance to the Masterworks Museum of Bermuda Art, will serve to showcase “what Bermuda’s makers have been up to.”

“Bermuda’s maker movement is part of an overarching term that includes independent inventors, designers and tinkers,” a release issued today by the Department of Communication and Information said.

The category also includes crafters, educators, artists and authors, among others.

“The maker movement pulls makers together, from computer hackers to traditional artisans, whether they work with cardboard or robotics, so that they can have the time and space to share ideas, learn from each other, and applaud each other’s creative product development,” Jeff Baron, Minister of National Security, said.

The event aims to showcase Bermuda’s youth makers, as well as to encourage parents with new leaning opportunities for their children.
