Well we survived another Dublin Maker. It was a great day. Once again our stand, props and gadgets were mobbed. Our time machine told so many futures, that we ran out of paper. We ran out of straws for our skull radio and had to get more at lunchtime. Our duck shoot game was in action all day. If you’d like to know more about us or to visit, get in touch with us using the contact form above.

As the website says…. See you 22nd July. No Tickets. Just come. Merrion Square. It is a rectangle, but don’t let that worry you……. Yes it’s Dublin Maker again and TOG will be there. It’s not long to go now. Less than a month. We’re busy panicking about what to bring and will it be ready on time. Be sure to drop by our stand.
From the Dublin Maker website…. “Dublin Maker is a free to attend, community run event, which will be held on Saturday July 22nd, 2017 in Merrion Square, Dublin. Dublin Maker takes the form of a “show and tell” experience where inventors/makers sourced through an open call, will have an opportunity to showcase their creations at individual booths in a carnival atmosphere. It is a family friendly showcase of invention, creativity and resourcefulness, and a celebration of the maker movement. It’s a place where people show what they are making and share what they are learning. Makers range from tech enthusiasts to crafters, educators, tinkerers, hobbyists, engineers, artists, science clubs, students, authors and commercial exhibitors. They are of all ages and backgrounds, coming from all over Ireland and beyond. Dublin Maker’s mission is to entertain, inform and connect the makers of Ireland, while inspiring the next generation of Ireland’s makers and inventors.”
TOG will be at CoderDojo Coolest Projects Showcase 2017 this coming Saturday 17th June in the RDS. We’ll be showcasing some of our own projects and running some workshops on Bridge Building, Soldering and Lock Picking. We will be in the main hall – central area.
From the Coolest Projects website….. “Come to the RDS, Dublin on Saturday 17th June 2017 to see the coolest projects from CoderDojo kids, aged 7 – 17, around the world showcasing their vision and creativity using technology to make the world a better place. Tickets for the CoderDojo Coolest Projects Showcase are now available at http://tickets.coolestprojects.org/ CoderDojo Coolest Projects is a great day of tech exploration and fun for the whole family.”
Our July Open Social evening takes place on Saturday 15th July from 7PM. Expect lots of chat and panic about Dublin Maker, which will be just 1 week away.
