FAQ

  1. Volunteer?  Does that mean I have to work all day?  Of course not.  All assistance is appreciated, but we want this to be a good time for our Membership as well as the public.  Sign up to volunteer and DM John Carter to coordinate what best fits for you.    
  2. Fundraiser?  Does that mean if I get a table I have to give a percentage of what I sell to Makersmiths?  nope.  The registration fee is all you need to pay.
  3. Badges?  What's up with these badges?  Look for a post in the #makersmarket2025 Slack channel and you'll see an example of the 3D printed badges with sublimated ribbons that we'll be providing to Volunteers and Vendors.
  4. What's the deal with the Tshirts?  You've probably already seen us pushing them in several Slack channels by now, but yes, as a Volunteer or Vendor, you get a sweet deal.  Check out our new Makersmiths Online Store!
  5. Can I just do whatever I want? Like any other Makersmiths event, Members are expected to follow the Guidelines set in our Bylaws.  Broad strokes - keep it family friendly and no weapons allowed.
