This year, Los Angeles Maker Faire and City of STEM Festival will both be taking place at the same time and the same place for one huge all-day extravaganza.
This mega event will feature:
- Over 200 exhibits highlighting organizations and innovators – including scientists, engineers, artists, major museums, NASA, and tech companies.
- Hands-on activities and unique experiences for adults, teens, and kids.
- A special appearance by Bill Nye, the Science Guy to kick off the event.
Los Angeles Maker Faire is spearheaded by the Los Angeles Public Library and is a continuation of the DTLA Mini Maker Faires that the Library has hosted since 2016. Maker Faire is a gathering of fascinating, curious people who enjoy learning and who love sharing what they can do.
City of STEM is L.A.’s largest community-based initiative focused on science, technology, engineering, and math. Created in 2015 by the Columbia Memorial Space Center to encourage and inspire the public, City of STEM is also a celebration of Southern California’s historic achievements in science.
