<br><br><div dir="ltr"><div><span><span><span>Full announcement at <a href="http://makerfaireatl.com/" target="_blank">http://makerfaireatl.com/</a></span><span></span>official<br>
<br></span></span><p>You may have deduced from the fact that because we had over 10,000
attendees last year or the fact that we’re now a two day event or the
fact that we’ve moved to Downtown Decatur that the Atlanta Mini Maker
Faire is now Maker Faire Atlanta, but if not, <b>LISTEN UP</b>!</p>
<p>Atlanta is joining the ranks of Rome, Detroit, Shenzhen, Kansas City,
Paris, Oslo, and a few others as one of the world’s ten “Featured
Faires.” To distinguish them from “Flagship Faires,” which happen in the
Bay Area and New York, Featured Faires are large scale (10,000+
attendees and 200+ makers) Faires that are organized by the location
that hosts them. Most Featured Faires are organized by museums and
science centers, but Atlanta has the distinction of being the first
Faire that has grown from a “Mini” to a Featured Faire through purely
volunteer work. <b>We are homegrown, we are community-grounded, we
are the only Featured Faire in the Southeast US, and one of only three
in the WORLD that is free to attend!</b></p></div><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><span><span></span></span><div><span><span><br>
