The first step to participating in the Maker Faire Rocklin is to submit an entry that tells us about yourself and your project. Entries can be submitted from individuals; groups such as hobbyist clubs and schools; commercial makers or crafters; startups; and companies. (Food vendors please write to Onelly.Olivas-Perez@rocklin.ca.us). We cannot allow anyone to participate in the event without first applying online.
Note, there is NO FEE to participate in the Rocklin Maker Faire if you are not selling or promoting a product. If you are a commercial maker, startup, or company and want to sell, booth fees vary between $50 to $175.
Here’s some suggested ideas for topics that we’re looking for:
Maker Exhibit: Our standard setup for a Maker exhibit is a 10’x10′ space. If you need more space for your exhibit or project, please let us know. Use this space to display your work and/or demonstrate how you make something. Try to incorporate a hands-on or interactive element for best exposure and connection to your audience!
Presentations or Workshops: 15, 25 minute or 45 minute time slots. This can be demos, stories, how-tos, or a group (panel) conversations. If you would like to offer longer or multiple workshops, please indicate in your application or email maker.faire@rocklin.ca.us to discuss this possibility.
Performances: Our main music stage typically has 45 minute sets. We love to program non-musical performances as well, and encourage pop-up performance happenings.
