Dublin Maker is Ireland’s biggest maker community showcase event. It gives a real opportunity for makers to excite and enthuse the general public about
the great making communities and their projects. This year it moves to Merrion Square to allow for even more making madness

The open call for this year’s Dublin Maker is now open to all inventors, makers, hackers and creators. Whether you have taken part before or still tinkering on something crafty, you can apply for a place at our biggest Dublin Maker yet.

OPEN CALL

Tog is proud to be a supporting organisations again this year.  We have been involved in the running of the Dublin Maker since its first year, now almost 5 years ago. We see the event as the highlight of the maker calendar in Ireland.

We are delighted to have been accepted to showcase our projects at Maker Faire UK. Being the largest Maker Faire in the UK, its a huge gathering of all sorts of makers. We always have a great time talking to the public and seeing our fellow hackerspaces.

This will be our 4th year showing casing at the event.  Last year we were trilled to find other Irish makers also there (Mint Tek). We hope this year will be no different.

This year we will be showing a range of wearables and a arduino powered panel clock. We are super proud that our project from last year is now featured on the Maker Faire UK home page. Can you tell which one it is ?
