What: Open Day & Party

Where - Nottingham Hackspace, Hopkinson Gallery Basement, 21 Station Street
Nottingham, NG1 3AJ

Dear NLUGs

Nottingham Hackspace has recently been forced to find a new home... We move
into that home over the next couple of weeks. Time will be spent making our
new home all kinds of awesome.
The members of the Nottingham Hackspace would be delighted if you could join
them in a celebration of our new Hackspace, Nottingham Hackspace 2.0

Rough plan of the day

08:00 to 11:00 - Makers set up (don't worry about being there on time it's
an informal thing)
10:00 - Doors open to the public
14:00 - Official Opening
16:00 - Doors close to the public
16:00:20 - PARTY
20:00 - 00:00 - stagger to the Station or homeward

Help Us By Exhibiting Your Project:
There will be an open day event where we'd like makers from other
Hackerspaces or from around the UK to help us demonstrate to the public what
a Hackerspace is. If you'd like to exhibit during our open day please email
Dominic nottinghack at gmail.com please do this before the 1st May 2011. Makers
will be able to set up in the Hopkinson Gallery or in the Hackspace before
doors open to the general public at 10:00am

Help Us By Visiting:
Alternatively we'd just enjoy your company! Perhaps you can talk to members
of the public about your project/Hackspace etc or just be there as part of
the scenery either way we'd like you to visit with us!

Help Us Party
We'll either have a licensed bar or we'll do a sort of BYO booze (or tea or
whatever) we'll have a BBQ we'll be asking for a donation towards the cost
of food (as we are poor).

Transport
It is possible to park on Station Street for free on a Sunday but it is very
much first come first served. We'd encourage makers to drop off kit early
(you can drive right up to our roller shutter doors) and then take the car
away to park. We are 20 seconds walk from the Station Street Tram (NET)
Terminus and there are very extensive park and ride facilities at Hucknall
(for folk travelling from UP NORTH J27 M1) and Phoenix Park (for those from
West Midlands & DOWN SOUTH J26 M1) We are literally a NERF dart shot from
Nottingham Station (don't ask how we know) and all the City Loop buses stop
just about 40 seconds walk up the road.

Please do come and register your interest TODAY on our web pages

or have a look at the Wiki page for the event (not much on there yet)
