BIG FABRICATORS WEEK 2001
The World's foremost hands-on exhibit building event for science centres,
children's museums and
hands-on places of all kinds
TECHNIQUEST, CARDIFF, WALES
13-17 OCTOBER
With Open Day and Seminar 17 October
TRADE SECRETS - What makes a good hands-on exhibit?
Want to learn how to build hands-on exhibits? Got an idea for an exhibit you
've never had the opportunity to try out? Dying to try your hand at exhibit
prototyping? Want to explore a new idea in exhibit building? Taking place in
a friendly environment in a fully equipped workshop Fabricators will give
you the chance to actually make exhibits rather than just talk about it or
watch others.
No great skill is needed, just enthusiasm and curiosity - Fabricators is
usually a cheerful mix of experienced exhibit builders, newcomers (often
without technical backgrounds) and hands-on people who don't usually get
near a workshop, all working together and sharing skills, ideas and
experience to come up with new exhibit ideas - blue-skies research for the
hands-on world.
Taking place in Techniquest's new workshops in Cardiff, this year's
Fabricators will also include a visit to the @Bristol science centre. Cheap
accommodation is available nearby.
There will also be a final open day when non-participants can come and view
the fruits of the week's work and take part in the Exhibit Development
Seminar, Trade Secrets, where experienced exhibit builders share the
wrinkles and rules of thumb that make an exhibit work - a must for anyone
designing, commissioning or building hands-on exhibits.
Numbers for Fabricator's Week itself are limited to 20, so book now to
ensure a place! There is no limit to the numbers for the Open Day and
Seminar.
