*Details:*
Makerspace Urbana is celebrating our 5 year anniversary on December 15th.
That's five years of fulfilling our mission to create a space where people
of diverse backgrounds can learn, teach, tinker, collaborate, share,
innovate, socialize, and create! Our list of accomplishments is this year
so large, we had to put it at the bottom of the email to fit! (see below).

And as part of our celebration, we are inviting YOU to be part of our Five
Year Five Hundred. This is a group of people who, collectively, commit to
contributing a small part of the $500 a month that will keep
our space thriving. We are excited to announce that we have already
received commitments totaling $250! We are halfway there- we just need YOU
to bring us to the total!
Can you join with others who care about our community and pledge $5, $10,
$25, or $50 a month for 2015?

*Directions once your at the IMC:*
The space can be a little tricky to find, but if you enter through the back
Bike Project door (near the radio tower on the south side of the building)
and take your first left, we're at the end of the hall. Here's a little
video to help: https:/youtube.com/watch?v=NtVYBwzWRjY And call (816)
