Randolph Area Community Development Corporation (RACDC) will host the 2nd Annual Randolph Mini Maker Faire on October 7, 2017 from Noon to 5pm at 2 South Main Street in downtown Randolph, VT. RACDC hosts the Maker Faire to highlight the growing importance of technology and innovation to our local economy, and to career opportunities for people of all ages. A Maker's Faire is an opportunity to showcase this kind of work the community, and to expose young people particularly, to the creative work going on around us and the world of opportunities open to them. To date, 23 demonstrators are signed up for the event. Maker displays are often interactive. Visitors can don virtual reality goggles and learn to pilot a drone. Children can learn to make “scribble-bots” from everyday materials and a tiny computer chip or create original designs with the Arts Bus. Laser cutting tools, lighting, 3-D printing, welding, the Internet of Things, and gemology are just a few of the other demonstrations that will fill the hall and street.
