[Makerspace-keymembers] Boneyard Arts Festival venue

[Mike Bohlmann]

I got the definitive answer that Boneyard dropped the Champaign/Urbana
specific days a few years ago.

Here's my proposed schedule with some more details based on a few responses:
Friday 4pm to 6pm: open hours
Friday 6pm to 8pm: 3D printing design and demonstrations (Mike)
Saturday 11am to 1pm: open hours (Gergana)
Saturday 1pm to 2pm: PyCU
Saturday 2pm to 4pm: BB-217 and associated maker skill demonstrations
Saturday 4pm to 6pm: (someone volunteer a workshop or activity here)/(Amy)
Saturday 6pm to 8pm: open hours (Amy)

it would be really cool if we could every maker that's involved with the
space to do a reception sort of thing and show off their stuff. I'd donate
some food if we can do that. I would suggest Saturday night for that. I
would bring in my workbench lighting system, my 3D printed stuff that I'm
selling via Shapeways, and maybe my litter box prototype. The whole thing
would compliment our Bb-217 project well.

Thoughts?

Mike
