# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Unicorn Palooza
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 19 Sep, 2026 at 06:00 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: For 2026, we are throwing the FIRST EVER Unicorn Palooza on Saturday, September 19, from 6-9 pm. You might be saying, "Why did Assemble wait so long to have such a fun event?" Great question!  We decided to retrieve MakerDate (thank you for all the years) and transform it into something new, like nothing before. Instead of bidding on dates during the live and silent auction, we will be remixing carnival games where folks can "spin the wheel" to land on a learning experience with a local ceramist, welder, writer, or celebrity! Pick up the duck to see if you won tickets to a museum or a charcuterie board! Unicorn Palooza will have plenty of amazing opportunities to connect with creatives, artists, makers, and technologists.
The Unicorny Awards
To be announced soon...

In celebrating 15 Years of Assemble, we want to shout out our gratitude to the folks who have helped Assemble to keep Assemble-ing!

Award titles include: Unsung Unicorn, Fabulous Funder, Afrofuturist Activator, and Magical Maker.

Why Unicorns?!
Our mascot, which was designed by Brenna Thummler in 2016, is a Unicorn Robot in Outer Space. From kids to grown-ups, folks love Unicorns - and feel like them too! Do you ever feel like you have something special to share, yet it might not be visible to others? You, too, might be a unicorn. 

All funds raised at Unicorn Palooza directly support Assemble’s STEAM education programs for youth, teens, and adults, like Assemble Afterschool, Saturday Crafternoons, Hack the Future, and Summer Camps!
