On June 2nd and 3rd, we hosted the TELUS LipSync Buildathon. While leaving the TELUS Garden with 30 more newly built LipSyncs was enough reason for elation — not to mention getting to meet an enthusiastic, hard-working group of makers at TELUS — it was an announcement by the Minister of Sport and Persons with Disabilities, Carla Qualtrough, that had us really excited for the future.
After closing out May with a series of Maker Faires — the Bay Area Maker Faire and the Sunshine Coast Mini Maker Faire — we’re headed for a busy June full of events and Buildathons. It’s time for outreach and making.
The Makers Making Change and Telus Day of Giving LipSync Buildathon will place on June 2nd and 3rd at Telus Garden in Vancouver, BC. This event coincides with National AccessAbility Week and is part of the Telus Day of Giving.
This Saturday, we’ll be at the SCI Forum, where the focus will be on SCI life hacks. It’s an event where we’re not only going to pass on our knowledge, but do some learning of our own.
