Show Off! with Spark
Sat, 30 May 2015
The annual Spark Children's Arts Festival seems to get better and better every year. On Saturday the 30th May I was involved in one of their new events, the Show Off! children's "making" event. This was held at LCB Depot and organised in collaboration with Phoenix.
The event featured a whole range of making activities for young people, including arts and crafts, Minecraft, animation, photography and - my contribution - electronics and LED lighting.
From the opening of the event at 11am (there was a queue to get in)! right up to the closing at 4pm there was a non-stop flow of youngsters looking to play with the electronic kits available. Some of the more advanced ones even got to have a go with some of the Arduinos we had on offer.
You can see some pictures of the event here on Flickr.
