 # Glasgow Hackerspace Wiki
-{{  :about:party.jpg?300}}
 This is a Wiki for organising the Glasgow [Hackerspace](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hackerspace). Hackerspaces are community workshops, providing tools and equipment for members to work with, and somewhere to socialise and discuss ideas. Hackerspaces are a bit like an artists' collective, a bit like a lab, and are grassroots community orgs sustained by membership contribution.
-As of 15/11/2024, we have a permanent space in [South Block](https://www.waspsstudios.org.uk/space/south-block/).
