AVTL x Esteem Tinker Meetup
Details
This day is meant to be relaxed and almost self-organizing — there will be a bit of structure, but the real energy and creativity will come from you and the people who show up.
Whether you’re into art, fashion, robots, music, or just curious to build something with others — you’re warmly welcome.
We want to bring communities together, reconnect through hands-on creativity, and recreate that spark that sometimes gets lost in our day-to-day work.
There will be snacks, drinks, and plenty of space to collaborate, explore, and play.
👉 We’ll provide some basic materials for brainstorming, but please bring your own tinkering materials for your project!
Fabric, wires, old electronics, paint — anything you’d like to use to imagine, build, or experiment.
### Collaboration between Esteem en AVTL
Tinker Nights are co-hosted by Esteem and AVTL —we share a passion for creativity, accessibility, and meaningful innovation, and above all, for community-driven entrepreneurship.
Together, we aim to bring people from different fields together to explore what happens when design, technology, and imagination meet — and to create space where everyone can participate, learn, and contribute.
