Twin Cities Maker will be having its usual weekly meet and greet at the Hack Factory this Wednesday, Jan 13, at 7 pm. This event is open to the public as well as members.
For those new to the organization, our weekly meetings are usually geek fests where you can meet up with and talk to people about whatever catches your fancy. Ask for help, share thoughts, inspire and be inspired.
We’ll also start planning for the future of the Hack Factory. We would like to start planning a kickoff event for the near future, and we’ll need a small committee of enthusiastic makers to help pull that off. If you’re interested, come to the meeting and we’ll get you in the loop on that.
Of course, anyone wanting to pay dues or bring in tools (or anything else they want to contribute to the stocking of the space) is welcome to do so.
We’ll see you there!
