 # 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/).

-# Opening Party: Saturday 15/02/2025, 3-8 p.m.
+# Meetups and open nights
-We've been open for a little while now, and we're holding an opening party, to launch the space! We've started filling the space up with furniture and equipment, and we're excited to let you see it.
+We run weekly open nights in our [space](about:space) in South Block, every Wednesday at 7pm.
-We will present a talk, at around 5 p.m., introducing hackerspaces, and how we got to where we are, and what we hope to do. There will be snacks and refreshments. Club Maté will be available. Donations are welcome, and we are also open to membership applications!
+More info about these can be found in our [Discord server](https://discord.gg/b9h36uyssD). The entrance is between the plant shop and the building reception. This is a shared building, and the reception is only open 9-5, but we are open all hours. When you arrive, send us a message on Discord or IRC, and someone will come down to let you in.
-# Meetups and open nights
+**Coming soon:** We are currently organising a regular [reading group](events:reading-group) and [board games night](events:games-night). The plan is for these to alternate fortnightly, so each will run approximately once a month. These events will be open to both hackerspace members and the general public.
-We run weekly open nights in our space in South Block, every Wednesday at 7pm.
+See [general information about caring for the space](about:caring-for-the-space).
