Diorama Landscapes
The Red Deer Museum + Art Gallery invites you to create your own art to take home. We will assist you, but you get to decide what sort of 3D landscape to build in your diorama box. Realistic or fantasy, imagine, create and build your own world.
Cigar Box Guitars
I make "Cigar Box" guitars, but I don't always use cigar boxes, just scraps of wood and whatever else is around when I need it. The builds require only a few basic tools, the players don't need much skill either.

What is Maker Faire?
Maker Faire is a gathering of fascinating, curious people who enjoy learning and who love sharing what they can do. From engineers to artists to scientists to crafters, Maker Faire is a venue for these "makers" to show hobbies, experiments, projects.
We call it the Greatest Show (& Tell) on Earth - a family-friendly showcase of invention, creativity, and resourcefulness.
