2024 Maker Show

Join us on June 9th for Tahoe’s celebration of our incredible maker community

Come to our makerspace home at the Truckee Tahoe Airport for this beloved celebration of art, community, and ingenuity at our 8th annual Maker Show!

This event brings together our entire creative community– Makers, Artists, Visionaries, Inventors, Non-profits, Performers, Education Partners, and Sponsors to IGNITE THE IMAGINATION. Discover over 60 local artisans – jewelers, sculptors, and metal workers all together to INSPIRE YOU. This is not just a craft fair – at the Maker Show, YOU are the artist.

Try leather stamping, experience wood turning, create your own candle, paint with beeswax, or explore the thrill of blacksmithing. We'll have a makers market, food trucks, beer, music, art cars, kids activities, tours of the makerspace, a silent auction, and raffle prizes. Join us for a true celebration of Wonder, Art, and Community.
