tl:dr; Newsletter frequency change as of 11/1, Eastworks Open Studio reminder, New City Brewery hangout (11/1 6-9) reminder
Hi all,
Just wanted to give a quick heads up, that starting next month, this newsletter will be changing from weekly to monthly. As we are settling in to our space more and have a well established weekly schedule, there is less news to share each week, so I don't want to get lost in the email shuffle by just sending out the schedule every week (which many of you know by heart) just to keep up the pattern. This will also give more time to create a more useful and interesting newsletter, that might include tips and tricks, tool highlights, member submitted projects (hint hint) and more. There might be a little adjustment to find the right schedule, and we'll definitely send out separate updates about things like schedule changes and special events, but overall, you can look forward to less frequent, but more interesting emails from us in the future!
Another reminder that we're still looking for a few more people to help out in the space during Eastworks Open Studio, especially on Sunday. Come hang out for a bit and share your excitement for what we're doing. And if you have something you've made that you'd like to put on display for the event, let us know! Sign up here for a shift or two and help us show off our great little makerspace.
And don't forget, after we finish up on Saturday, we're planning to head over to New City Brewery from 6-9 for an informal "3 years of MakeFixHack" hangout for everyone who's been helping us out, wishing us well, or just talking and tinkering along the way. Basically if you're reading this, you're welcome to join us! There's also a spot on the open studio signup sheet to let us know if you're interested (even if you can't help out during the day). Details may change a little as we get closer, so stay tuned.
Be safe and keep making things!
- Bill C.
