Details

GRMakers is proud to be a partner with BarCamp this year and want to invite all of our members to come down and experience this one of a kind event!

What is BarCamp?

BarCamp is an ad-hoc gathering born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos, and interaction from attendees, usually centered around design & technology topics.

Barcamp is about meeting interesting people, talking about what you want to talk about, and listening to what you're interested in. Subjects of discussion have ranged from web programming and digital photography to computer vision and turkey basting.

One of BarCamp's pivotal tenets is participation. We ask that all of our attendees participate in one way or another, even if you're a first timer.

Where is BarCamp?

BarCamp is hosted on Calvin College's Campus in the DeVos Communication Center.

1810 East BeltLine Ave SE
