I would like to share information about the next Lovelace event delivered by Hacksmiths (21 March):
At this Lovelace event we will be learning about using Twine as a storytelling tool! As International Women's Day has just past, we would love to hear you share your stories about your experiences as women and non-binary folk, or make something cool & fun on your own topic of interest. We will provide snacks, arts & crafts supplies (including a scanner) so you can make your own... story or game. Create something cool in a co-working space and learn a new skill!
