Exclusive rooftop event for interior designers to connect, discover our trade program, and explore design-driven window treatments. Join us for *Framing the View: Designer Trade Evening*, an exclusive rooftop event created for interior designers in the DMV area. This evening is designed to bring together members of the local design community to connect, collaborate, and explore window treatments through a designer-focused perspective. During the event, attendees will learn about Made in the Shade Washington, DC’s **Designer Trade Partnership Program**, which provides interior designers with a centralized resource for window treatment vendors, technical guidance, and streamlined project execution. Our team works closely with designers, architects, and contractors to support projects from concept through installation. Guests can expect a relaxed rooftop setting, opportunities to network with fellow design professionals, and an introduction to our approach to collaborative partnerships within the design industry. Light refreshments will be provided, and attendees will receive a **complimentary designer gift bag**. Space is limited to maintain an intimate networking experience for designers in the DMV design community.

***UPDATE: Meet us in the Rockville Library, Collaboration room #4*** ***Join us for an evening in an electronics lab where we will attempt to run clean scans of gold samples, and then clean up that data with post processing.*** This is a high sensitivity experiment, and we do not plan on being successful so early. But we've had promising results lately - so we will be putting in the time. We will attempt full, clean lab - clean tip repeated scanning tests to see what we can learn and improve. We will experiment with online attendees, but if all possible showing up in person is strongly encouraged. Online join link is: - [https://meet.jit.si/mocomakers](https://meet.jit.si/mocomakers) Our community is building (and documenting for other teams) how to build a scanning tunneling microscope using a mix of common and 3D printed parts. This will allow us to scan and visualize a single atom - an ambitious we are doing over the course of a few months. The MoCo Makers community is one of the most innovative and competent groups in Maryland, and we've done everything from [publishing cancer research](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38136356/), to [launching products](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/gotim/cozy-curvy-multi-contour-pillow), [winning grants](https://covidinfocommons.datascience.columbia.edu/awards/2014255), and inspiring thousands. Now our biggest challenge yet has appeared. We are building a Scanning Tunneling Microscope, that will allow us to scan and visualize single atoms. To get a better idea of what we are doing, see our reference project here: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7N3OqTEq08g](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7N3OqTEq08g) All starting CAD, code, and reference files should exist. However, let's be the first Maker community to document the build process and share it with learners around the world.

We thought of one of the interesting things that can be enjoyed at this time of the year. We will be meeting at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church for a "Fish Fry" in Marian Hall on Friday, March 27th at 5:00 PM. It might be fun for you to experience what has become a tradition on the Fridays before Easter. They will have fried fish or baked fish, French fries and Cole slaw, as well as beverages, all for $16.00 for adults. They will have other beverages and desserts available for sale, as well. We have never tried this, and sometimes there are quite a few people at these events so we hope that we will be able to find each other easily. I'll try to have signs outside Marian Hall that Identify our group. We hope to have you join us!
