The event drew thousands of people of all ages to the Holly Hill Mall, where various schools, organizations, business, individual hobbyists showcased their work and talked shop with other makers.
Groups from Elon have exhibited at the Burlington Mini Maker Faire in the past, but this was the first year that Elon was an official sponsor. For this year’s exhibit, the Maker Hub hosted a photo booth, where faire attendees could pose with various props and get instant printouts of their pictures. Representatives from each Kickbox project also presented their work at the faire.
