Contribute to the 25K Micro Sponsor Fund for FAB6! Help us bring 10 deserving Fab Labbers from around the world to the meeting this year, giving them the opportunity to participate in global collaborations and opportunities. It costs $2500 for each Fab Lab member to come to Amsterdam for the week. Make your contribution! Give a little or give a lot, you will help Fab Lab members come from places like Afghanistan, Ghana, India, Kenya, South Africa and more!
COMPETITION! The week of FAB6 happens to be the same week when the Tall Ships arrive in Amsterdam for The Sail event. We`ll cohabitate with these splendid seafaring vessels during our stay, so we’re using them as FAB inspiration! The goal is to make a water worthy vessel, and include two or more fab lab processes in your design. Your FAB vessels can be any size, any shape, can float a person or not, but all entries will be publicly demonstrated in one of the famed canals of Amsterdam in our Small Ship Sail on Friday afternoon August 20. More details and registration.
