[edit] About Arch Reactor
Arch Reactor started as a wish in June of 2009 with a bunch of people meeting at a pizza place to work out how we could make this great idea happen in St. Louis. Fast forward to December 2009 and we have a good sized room in a 130+ year old Lemp Brewery building!
[edit] Meetings
We are current holding informal meetings every Tuesday from 7:30PM to around 9PM at one of the old Lemp Brewery buildings at 904 Cherokee St., St Louis, MO 63118
[edit] Upcoming and recent events
Arch Reactor Hackerspace Invites you to our Grand Opening!
We've been hard at work whipping our new space into shape and now we want everyone to come see it!
Are you a self-described ‘techie’ that is looking for your niche? Arch Reactor, St. Louis’ first Hackerspace is a co-op workshop and club for techies, tinkers and free thinkers. Part arts and technology clubhouse, part training ground for new skills and knowledge, Arch Reactor is a place for St. Louis residents to share and receive educational information and training on various topics and skills with access to the tools you otherwise couldn't afford on your own. We offer a work space for all kinds of artistic and technologic pursuits.
Saturday, January 30th from 4-10pm the group is hosting an public open house in their new space for anyone interested in learning more about the group. There will be several presentations on different topics by group members and the group will be showcasing several projects and activities, such as a MakerBot, a life-sized version of the game Jenga, a Japanese Arcade Game tournament and other fun interactive exhibits.
This event is free to all. Drinks and refreshments will be offered for a donation.
Tell your friends! Tell your neighbors! Tell anyone that's interested in building, learning and above all, DOING!
