History of Lafayette Mini Maker Faire:

Maker Faire originated in the San Francisco Bay area in 2006 as a project of Make: magazine. It has since grown into a significant worldwide network of maker events.

The Lafayette Mini Maker Faire is presented by the Lafayette Public Library and the Lafayette Science Museum. All ages welcome. It returns for a 2nd year as a venue for makers to show hobbies, experiments, and projects to the local community. People can apply to be a maker, a volunteer, or simply come out to enjoy this free event.

When people are financially stable, they can make financial decisions that benefit themselves and their families, which, in turn, benefits the community. Being financially stable also puts families in a better position to handle crisis – job loss, illness or other unforeseen expenses. The VITA program is just one way United Way of Acadiana is creating financial stability. In the last two years, this program put approximately $8 million back in the hands of hardworking families through free tax preparation assistance. During that period, volunteers assisted more than 5,800 Acadiana residents in filing their taxes, helping them claim nearly $2 million each year of the nearly $30 million in Earned Income Tax Credit that goes unclaimed annually.
