Here are some suggested guidelines for hosting an event at Noisebridge. If it's an hour or two long workshop with a dozen or so participants, just hold it. If it's bigger, such as an unconference or a full day of presentations or you expect a lot of new people to show up, please note the following:
- It's recommended that you have a Noisebridge member or several as part of your planning committee to see that you avoid common pitfalls when working with our organization
- publicize the event via the mailing list and the wiki, with enough lead time that the community can respond and give feedback
- be aware of the existing ongoing events and try to work around them
- show up for a while before finalizing your planning and get to know some of the denizens
- have a plan for setting up the space
- have a plan for cleaning up after yourself (and follow it)
- consider a monetary donation to Noisebridge
