Join us at Cherry Street Pier for Maker Faire Philadelphia!

Maker Faire is a gathering of fascinating, curious people who enjoy learning and who love sharing what they can do. From engineers to artists to scientists to crafters, Maker Faire is a venue for these "makers" to show hobbies, experiments, projects.

Drop by anytime 10am – 4pm on Sunday April 6th to make your own unique hand-printed letterpress map of the Philadelphia border & Delaware watershed and learn more about Walk Around Philadelphia while checking out all of the other displays and interactive stations our creative neighbors will have set up!
