When the London Hackspace [[History | started]] in early 2009 there were virtually no comparable social workshop spaces in London. In recent years we've seen many more of these organisations appear: communal workshop spaces where people come together to make things, share tools, knowledge, and skills. Here's a list of some of the ones we've seen since, feel free to expand/amend. Some are old, but most are new. | |||
In early 2014 there was a first gathering of organisers from such "open workshops", with more to come soon. These will be announced on the brand-new [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/open-workshops-london Open Workshops London] mailing list. | |||
See also: [[Other Hackspaces]]. | ''It's sometimes hard to delineate which orgs to include. I'd like to focus on non-profit maker-type communal workspaces, and *not* on orgs in more well-developed domains such as open source, computer security, the arts, commercial co-working spaces, incubators, etc; however sometimes those boundaries aren't very clear. Jonty defines hackerspaces more narrowly as "community owned and governed communal workshops with a focus on recreational use", but this list is not just limited to hackerspaces.
