On Saturday, November 3, 2018, I started my day with a “Mini-Retreat to Renew Community Builders: Habits for Inclusion & Democracy,” sponsored by Neighborhood Connections (@NeighborUpCle), before attending the Cleveland Mini Maker Faire in the afternoon. 2018 marks the sixth year for the Cleveland Public Library (@Cleveland_PL) - "The People's University" - as a sponsor and host of the Cleveland Mini Maker Faire (@CLEMakerFaire), and I have attended and written blog posts about three of the previous years' events.
Also, I am excited that my sons had a booth at the Cleveland Mini Maker Faire this year, featuring their tabletop game, PerMUTATIONS (@PermutationGame). This is the first time they have been invited to share their game with the public at the Library. They have demonstrated their PerMUTATIONS game at the last two Ingenuity Cleveland's IngenuityFest (@IngenuityCLE - #IngenuityFest) events, which you can read about in our blog posts:
-
Blog Date: October 10, 2018 - Cleveland IngenuityFest 2018: FuturePast
-
Blog Date: October 11, 2017 - Metamorphosis: IngenuityFest Cleveland 2017
What follows are my 100 @sos_jr tweets and retweets, so you can see photos from the event, and learn how the Cleveland Public Library uses the Cleveland Mini Maker Faire to bring together area makers and creatives to share their knowledge and to encourage others to join them. Please share any tweets that have photos or information that interests you, so others will learn about this great Library event, and the the creative people participating.
