Workshops

We try and hold at least one talk at our monthly hack evenings, and we also want to start running more involved workshops at our space. If you want to give one of these, or you've got a suggestion, this is the place to let us know.

Workshops offered and prepared

If you are scheduled to do a workshop, or can definitely give one at no notice, please add it here.

• Intro to Brewing Beer -- Andy "Bob" Brockhurst & Russ (21 July)
• Open discussion on the future of London Hackspace -- Jonty (21 July)
• Arduino for beginners - in planning Andy "Bob" Brockhurst & Solexious (28/29 August)

If you can give a workshop talk, put it here. If you need more than a week's notice, please say so. Don't interpret the timestamp dates below as projected dates. Actual scheduled workshops will be shown above.

For certain workshops, more than one volunteer may be needed, depending on activities and number of attendees.
