Make San Leandro, May 31st — For Kids of All Ages

As a City that Makes Things, it’s signficant that we are hosting our first maker event at the site of this City’s oldest tradition — the 105th anniversary of San Leandro’s Cherry Festival. The Cherry Festival itself will be the biggest in years – a 100-entry parade (including 5 Burning Man art cars, ArtIsMobilus art car, floats, and many special guests), a musical stage that will include Tony, Toni, Tone as headliners, Bistro at the Casa, an outdoor café featuring a variety of local wines, beer and gourmet food trucks — and, of course, Make San Leandro!

Make San Leandro has approximately 12,000 sq ft of exhibition space with dozens of exhibitors and makers. The Mobile Fab Lab, a variety of San Leandro makers, 3D printers, puppetry, robotics, an art wall you can paint on, paper air rockets — and we’re adding more every day!
