Master Makers: Hear our call

We have so much fun with Makedo, and we want to see what happens when other creative people wrap their minds around a little playful creativity.

Right now, we are looking for creatives to make stuff. Perhaps you know someone! We have a number of free kits to give away to these creative sorts to see just how inventive they can be.

Master Makers Jenny Kan and Tanaka Satoshi 

Here’s a snapshot of the ideal Makedo Master Maker: 

  • An artist/designer/visionary who sees the magic in everyday materials
  • Understands and values reuse and resourcefulness
  • Is playful in both work and in life

If this sounds just like someone you know, share this post with them, send us both an email or use the comments form below to tell us how super they are. Give us a little time to make Masters of your mates and stay tuned for the creative delights that are sure to start flowing in.

Hi there, my name is Jen and I teach a kids art classes 3 times a week in Paddington Sydney. I have been asking the kids what types of things they would like us to do, when they said "can we make recycled sculptures" I thought of you guys straight away! My kids are aged 4-9, so creative and inspiring and they would LOVE the opportunity to make the sculptures the best they could be using Makedo :)

I'd love to help! I own an art camp for kids in the San Francisco Bay Area, California!

My partner at Specialty Toys Network is a total recycle artist. Adam Trickey who has done wonderful and cool art with everything from recycled computer parts to AOL CDs. Perfect for the project.
