NoiseBridgeRehab

Spend a day improving your NoiseBridge! Work on large and small projects to make the space more useful and user-friendly! Learn how to run electric and put up drywall in our general areas, or work on small projects for your favorite area of the space. We'll have music with a live DJ for a portion of the day, and food for those who put in a couple hours of work.
