The family-friendly festival for creative people in Salzburg was a complete success. About 800 persons of all age groups worked and tinkered on the 29^th of April from 10 am to 6 pm at the TriBühne Lehen. The youngest exhibitor was 13 years old.

It has been soldered, folded, woven, 3D-modeled and 3D-printed, robot programmed, computer operated with vegetables and much, much more. The 23 stations of the approximately 60 makers – the youngest exhibitor was 13 years old – were stormed. Adults, young people and many children were amazed, thy looked, tried and experimented themselves. Some wanted to take a look – and stayed the whole day. The feedback about the event was overwhelming.

The youngest maker with his own stand was Arno Krenslehner. The autodidact showed things that he developed and “chopped” last year. He convinced with astounding expertise and lots of creativity. Even some adults could learn something at the Arno Krenslehner stand.
