East End Beacon: North Fork School Fosters a Community of Makers, March 18, 2016

Written By megan eilers

"The Peconic Community School held its first-ever Maker Faire last Saturday, March
12.

Hundreds of people gathered in the gymnasium of the
Riverhead Charter School in Calverton to build, play, create, learn, innovate and engage in all things Maker.

The PCS Maker Faire was a Mini Faire, part of an international movement of Maker Faires, which create opportunities for conversations with Makers. Tech enthusiasts, crafters, educators, tinkerers, hobbyists, engineers, science clubs, authors, artists, students, and entrepreneurs all come together to show their projects and to talk about what they have learned. It is a community­-based learning event designed to inspire everyone to become a maker."
