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.
