Two weeks to go: Tech3Shed

… and we have barely anytime for anything else

To be fair we did take a night off to go to the Massive attack gig as it would have seemed rude not to see them while they are back home!

We’re still working hard on our Tech Careers Fair Tech³Shed in Bristol in conjunction with the HBB and Desklodge House on the 15th and 16th March. Sign up on eventbrite – we’ll be leafletting this week too, so anyone wanting posters for their office mail us on info@tech3shed.org and we’ll mail you one to print out or can drop in a printed copy locally. We have some volunteers from UWE coming to help us which is great news, but with so many of our wonderful members asking to help then we have also set up volunteering pages if you want to lend a hand. We are currently fixing the workshop schedule and will be announcing them as we get the full details.

Last week we had a great evening with Bristol Girlgeekdinners hosted by Graphcore and it was brilliant – so big thanks for hosting such a great event! We are in the planning stages for the next few – Engine shed have kindly offered for March 21st and we will be at the ACCU in April.

With all that in the planning, we will be taking a night off for International Women’s day and will be found mostly drinking cocktails – sign up for volunteering or drinking on our meetup page.

Deeds Not Words Grrrl Games & Bristol Women’s Voice

A public talk about Deeds Not Words; making games with girls to celebrate the centenary of women’s suffrage in 2018

Come and find out more about the Deeds Not Words games developed by girls in Bristol and inspired by stories of our local women’s suffrage movement a hundred or more years ago.

We’ll be showing the games designs that girls aged 13-18 have made and sharing the new website inspired by working with the girls.
