Valentine’s Day is coming up soon. Now is a great time to get started on a rad project for that certain someone. Ya know, instead of shelling out your hard-earned cash to Big Hallmark.Wooden valentines? Metal fab roses? 3D printed hearts? The sky is the limit!

Cool Shit Committee Meeting
Open Workshop Hosting
AMS holds Open Workshop Hours on Monday and Friday nights from 7 pm to 10 pm. This gives keyless members a time to come use the Space. These nights need a member with a key to come open the door, and shut down the space when they leave.
If you’re an AMS member with a key, please consider hosting an Open Workshop night once or twice per month. Its a great way to meet new members and have a solid 3 hour block of making on your schedule. We have sign-up sheets here for members to sign up to ‘host’ these nights.
No one is currently signed up for February.
