SeaPerch will also have a Flinking activity for students to try their hand at achieving neutral buoyancy.
Maurizio Paura– Composer, singer/songwriter, and guitarist Maurizio Paura will be performing at Maker Faire. Come to the Faire and check out his music! When he is not performing or composing, Paura volunteers at the Wentworth Douglass Hospital in Dover as a therapeutic musician.
Seek Its- Erika Carly has created her own hand-made versions of the Find It toys called Seek Its. Maker Faire attendees will get to make their own Seek Its, for a small fee, to take home with them. She will also be selling other Seek Its, wire trees, and beaded metal bookmarks.
Portsmouth Public Library– The Portsmouth Public Library will be returning to this year’s Maker Faire and will be encouraging attendees to get crafty, techy, and skilled at the library! They will be providing a few different hands-on craft projects for anyone to try.
Handmade Productivity- Do you have a secret dream to travel the world? An “evil” plan to take over…the garden? Handmade Productivity will help you make those dreams a reality by giving you tools to organize and inspire yourself. Come by their booth and create a pocket journal to capture brilliant ideas or any thoughts that come in your head during the day, make a bulletin board out of repurposed materials or even create an inspirational sign to motivate yourself.
