Hybrid Civic Action Night!
Details
< Monthly Civic Action Night (In-Person) />
Hello to all, we are having a February Civic Action Night this Thursday on 2/16/2023 at our usual 6:30 pm time slot at Action Spot. Come for the food, stay for the vibes : )
Our venue will be at ActionSpot, just on the edge of downtown San Jose, with some hybrid options available if you're unable to make it in-person. We've got a few 'go out and touch grass' activities with other organizations,
We are a coding brigade dedicated to using our skills and backgrounds in tech to better our community. Whether it’s coding, app design, or simply consultation and volunteer work, Code For San Jose is a platform for individuals to get involved, get experience, make a difference, and meet other people who are also techie+art-minded and interested in getting involved in the local community.
