Come to the 6th Annual Maker Faire Kansas City at Union Station on June 25 & 26! This year we have BRAND NEW Attractions! Combining mechanics with puppetry, The Bike Zoo, will be bringing their larger than life, interactive, playful, hand-built creatures to the Faire!
The Bike Zoo was born as a collaboration of collective imagination between bike-builders, puppet-makers, and performers while fostered by the creative and supportive environment of Austin, Texas. Ringleader, Cofounder and Mechanical Engineer, Jeremy Rosen and his company create everlasting memories.
At Maker Faire Kansas City, you will discover and be able to ride the:
- The Giant Rattlesnake is 80 feet in length, has 34 wheels, is articulated in 15 places and seats six people. As participants or performers pedal, the Giant Rattlesnake slithers; it looks very, very real.
- Butterflies, ranging from 10′ to 18′ Tall!
- The Carousel which can seat 6 peddlers and up to 10 riders in the center
