Science & Maker Faire Registration Deadline April 7

The inaugural Blunderbuss Science & Maker Faire will take place April 28-30th in Bozeman, Montana. It will be a symposium which fuses inventions, science projects, dialogue and problem solving events in a show-and-tell environment. The event will take place in multiple venues around Bozeman and will be open to the public. Our goal is to find garage projects, makers, tinkers, inventors, entrepreneurs, scientists, and problem solvers and provide a community of education, opportunity and creativity.

The original pirate shotgun, the blunderbuss is known for its utilitarian resourcefulness; it could fire whatever material fit down its barrel, including forks, knives, rocks, etc. As such, the blunderbuss was a fitting namesake and metaphor for the environment Blunderbuss seeks to foster, one in which risk-takers can discharge their creative shrapnel on the community – to fail comfortably or succeed incredibly – and learn. As stewards of resourcefulness, collaboration, ingenuity and innovation, Blunderbuss’ originators and dedicated staff are committed to making multi-generational education, open community dialogue and unhindered creativity of foremost priority. A community resource for mind bending.
