TogetherSource Maker Music Festival
Saturday, May 27th 10am to 7pm
What is a Maker Festival?
Makers are people who make the world around them more beautiful and interesting by building, making, crafting, hacking, writing, or recycling using any material and any method to create something wonderful. Makers embrace the DIY spirit to the nth degree. Makers are creative and love to figure things out.
Maker fairs/festivals are where they gather to share what they make and teach others the magic of their craft.
Join us for our first TogetherSource Maker Music Festival!

This is a *FREE* and family-friendly event hosted by TogetherSource on Saturday, May 27th, with live music all day, food trucks, prizes, kids' crafts and activities, and of course the creative and interesting MAKERS. We expect up to 300 people and 30+ marvelous maker booths.
The festival will also include poetry readings, stories, and Aztec dance performance. There will be a singing bowl sound healing session, a composting workshop, and healing and beauty services.
The TogetherSource Maker Music Festival is from 10am to 7pm. The maker portion of the festival is officially over at 5pm but many booths will remain open later. Our feature band, Keeping Up With the Joneses plays from 4-7pm and is our monthly gift to the community to celebrate birthdays for the month.
