FAQ
Can I bring a child to the event?
Children of all ages are welcome at Makers Day as long as they are directly supervised by a guardian. Children 12+ are welcome to participate in workshops if they are able to be engaged and respectful of group dynamics. Younger children must be supervised in areas (plenty of paths to walk and a creek to explore) where they will not disrupt recording, facilitation, or focus.
Are tickets refundable?
Tickets are non-refundable but are transferrable. Feel free to donate or sell to a friend if your schedule changes.
Can I register day of the event?
Yes, though admission to specific workshops may already be full. Ticket prices also go up April 16, so we encourage early registration to support our planning and preparation.
For supper, will there be allergen-free options available?
We will provide gluten and dairy free options for supper. You are also welcome to bring additional food and beverage items and store or heat them in the indoor kitchen.
