Monash Maker Faire 2022
Organised by Monash Tech School, The City of Monash, and Monash University, the supersized Monash Maker Faire was held at Monash University’s Clayton Campus on Sunday 4 December 2022.
The Maker Faire highlighted the physical makerspaces, labs, and studios found in the engaging Woodside Building for Technology and Design, collaborative Monash Makerspace, and entrepreneurial Monash Generator.
The Victorian community responded with over 300 artisans, developers, hackers, inventors, and tinkerers of all descriptions converging to share their passions with attendees of all ages.
We thank our sponsors, promoters and volunteers for supporting the diverse and active community of makers across the Monash Precinct and Greater Melbourne.
Special Attractions
Featured Makers
Drawbots
Can you teach a robot to draw? We normally think of drawing as an exclusively human activity. While other animals, such as chimpanzees, can be trained to paint or draw, drawing isn’t something that is regularly observed in animals other thann humans.
Monash Opportunity Tech Lab Inclusivator
Makers can experience in VR how to turn their passion into profit. The Inclusivator showcases successful neurodiverse entrepreneurs pitching their businesses and how they found their superpower and applied it to successful enterprises.
ChrisThePropGuy
We specialise in Star Wars props, we like to stay true to the originals and manufacture things like they did in the 70s. We will be showing off how the originals were made and how the manufacturing processes have evolved over the past 40 years.
