Join The Maker Effect Foundation for a fundraiser event celebrating 10 years of Maker Faire Orlando. The event features invited maker guests, interactive artists, and several teams from the BattleBots television show. Chat with Makers, mingle with BattleBots teams, see robot exhibitions, and bid on silent auction items. Tickets are limited for this exclusive event!

Hors d'oeuvres will be served so that you can snack as you interact!
