Making Space

Making Space   will return in September.

There will be two sessions a week.

Thursday evening 19.00 to 21.00
and
Monday afternoons from 14.00 to 17.00
 
As usual this is a club not a led workshop. Please bring your own materials and projects, or try something new with the donated materials and tools we have accumulated.

That said, some evenings will have a theme where regulars are willing to share their skills rather than simply use the time for their own projects.

We ask for £5 a time to cover overheads, or you can contribute in kind.  

Monday 2 till 5Thursday 19.00 to 21.00
