Saturday, March 9, 10:30am-2:30pm, All Ages, Auditorium

Meet our community’s Makers!  

Maker Fest is an opportunity for people to get together and share ideas, try new things, learn about makers and maker resources in the area, and be inspired. Meet our community’s makers and see demonstrations of art, technology, and design by local clubs, hobbyists, and businesses. Best of all, try out projects yourself! This event is free and open to everyone. 

This year's Maker Fest will feature Wilmette Public Library's newly opened Studio, a do-it-yourself maker space where patrons of all ages can learn, make, and collaborate on creative projects. Learn more about The Studio.
