To celebrate the New Year, we’ve gone live a day early with our Maker application!
So have at it! Get your Make on! Wow us with your incredible ingenuity and creativity!
Set our collective minds afire with your amazing DIY inventiveness, and let’s show the world how absolutely amazing Tampa Bay is – not just for our magnificent weather, views, and recreational opportunities – but for our unstoppable creative, entrepreneurial and inventive productivity, energy and intellect.
Exhibits that are interactive or highlight the process of making things are especially desired. Here’s the process…
