Protospace is attending Calgary Mini Maker Faire 2016 (August 20–21), which will be held at Telus Spark, the same location as the previous two years. We will have a large Protospace booth, and some members will have their own booths.

How to Help

  • Show up and help run the booth. First, sign up by posting in this thread or sending a private message to Kat—you won't get an exhibitor pass otherwise. Second, add your name to the schedule below (or, if you lack a wiki account and can't create one for some reason, or the table markup is too poorly organized to find where you want to put your name, tell Ian in person).
  • Bring or send your projects. First, tell us what you're bringing/sending in this same thread. Second, add them to the table below (or, again, tell Ian in person).
  • Help other members with last-minute work on their projects.
  • Tell your friends and family they should come to the Faire.
