The Figma Make-a-Thon Makurdi 2026 is a hands-on, community-driven design sprint bringing together creatives, designers, and builders to collaborate, learn, and create impactful digital solutions within a limited time frame.
Hosted by Friends of Figma Makurdi, this event is designed to challenge participants to think critically, work in teams, and transform ideas into functional prototypes using Figma and other collaborative tools. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced designer, the Make-a-Thon provides a supportive environment to explore creativity, sharpen your skills, and build meaningful projects.
Participants will be grouped into teams and guided through a structured sprint that includes ideation, problem definition, design execution, and final presentations. Along the way, there will be mentorship sessions, design critiques, and opportunities to learn best practices from experienced professionals.
