Innovation Fair 2025
2025 marks the 50th anniversary of the Bricklin, a 1975 car designed for safety with a reinforced fiberglass body, energy-absorbing bumpers, and a roll cage. Though not commercially successful, it highlights the value of learning from past innovations.
This year’s Regional Innovation Fair, themed Community of the Future, challenges students to apply historical lessons to build sustainable, inclusive communities. In Bathurst, New Brunswick, projects will draw inspiration from Atlantic Canadian inventions like the Bricklin, encouraging teachers to blend history with future-focused thinking, such as designing sustainable transportation solutions.
Testimonials from Innovation Fair 2024
"It was a BRILLIANT Day!! One of those days that reminds a person why they became an educator in the first place. (...) The energy in the building was electric!! Hosting an Innovation Fair for 2000+ people is a huge undertaking in itself, but to pull it off in the dark with a “celebration of light” was simply mind blowing! Seeing students of all ages so excited made my day! Thank you Brilliant Labs / Labos créatifs for choosing ASD-North to host your 10 Year Anniversary & Innovation Fair. (...)"
