TOG November Open Social

Our November Open Social will take place on Saturday 18th November from 19:00. It will be a busy day in the space with our mini-hackathon going on since 10:00.

If you’ve never been to our Social, you’ll find it a great alternative Saturday evening in town. Come in and look around. If you’ve never been in before, we’ll give you the grand tour of the space. Talk to members and visitors about projects or things you’d like to do. If you like what you see, ask about joining as a full member. Hopefully there’ll be caint, ceol agus craic as usual. The space stays open until the last member is left……usually the small hours of Sunday morning.

Our Open Socials are always free to attend for both members and visitors alike. No need to book…. just turn up. You can drop in for 10 minutes, or stay the whole night. We have parking available. Bring beer, food, gadgets! Our doors will be open from 19:00. Hope to see you there.

November Mini Hackathon

Come and join us for a Mini Hackathon on Saturday 18th November in Blackpitts. The space will be open from 10:00 until very late. This event is free to attend for both members and visitors alike. You can come any time during the day, from 10:00 onwards. Have a quick look around or stay the whole day. Whatever works for you.

What is a Mini Hackathon? Well it’s like all of our regular open evenings rolled into one and then some more. It’s an excuse to drop in and make/break/create/tinker/hack anything. Brewing, Electronics, Baking, Crafting, Wikipedia editing, Coding…. all these and more. Whatever you can think of! Theres already talk of people doing strange things with air compressors and sand. Want to know more…. well you’ll have to come in and find out.

TOG members have a great sense of priority and because you can’t hack on an empty stomach, we’ll be starting with breakfast. The kettle will be on at 10:00 and we’ll provide all of the basics in our kitchen for breakfast. If you want something fancy for breakfast… bring it in!

Suitably fed and watered, the fun will begin. If you don’t fancy getting your hands dirty…. well drop in anyway. Have a cuppa and see whats going on. Get some ideas and have a look around the space.

Saturday 18th also happens to be our regular Open Social day, so the space will actually stay open sometime into the small hours of Sunday morning 19th. We have parking available. Hope to see you there.

*** Please Note: You must be 18 Years or older to take part in this event ***
