MakerFest |

UNC Makers and supporters are invited to participate in Carolina’s Spring 2024 BeAM MakerFest! Show off your creations from class or personal projects, or share your ideas and prototypes from research or entrepreneurial efforts. There will be prizes, maker competitions, mini-events, hands-on maker challenges, as well as refreshments. No matter your experience level or reason for making, or even if you just want to support makers and check it out, everyone is welcome.

Let us know if you’re planning on attending by registering through HeelLife here: https://heellife.unc.edu/event/9974423. Thanks for being a part of the maker community at UNC and we hope to see you, your friends, and coworkers on April 29th.
