Four years and a month ago a rowdy bunch of hackers and makers moved into what would be Pumping Station: One’s first location. Come celebrate our fourth anniversary in our new space!

When: May 4th, 7PM – Demos and reception; 10PM – Live music!

Where: Pumping Station: One, 3519 N. Elston (near Addison and Kedzie)

We’ll have some of our awesome projects and demonstrations on display for you, so come check them out! We’ll have:

Souped-up Power Wheels Racers

DIY Quadcopter

Check out our new scanning electron microscope

Brain-based Jacob’s Ladder

WindowFarm

THUNDER SLINKY!

Other cool things!

It wouldn’t be a real hackerspace party if there wasn’t some good ol’ fashioned hacking going on:

Make art with lasers!

Silkscreen your own art poster!

Learn to solder and walk away with your very own blinkie badge!

Print your first object using one of our 3D printers

We’ll have liquid refreshments and some light snacks. Later on we’ll have music and a light up LED birthday cake.

All funds will go to helping us build out our new kitchen area. Please RSVP and spread the word!
