Make It Up!
A funny improv fundraiser
at Eddie's Attic
on May 7!

We’re putting the fun in fundraising as Decatur Makers and Eddie’s Attic partner to hold the first annual Make It Up! Improv Show on May 7, 2019, 7:30-9:30 (doors open at 6pm). Celebrate with us for a night of laughs, prizes and surprises, all to support Decatur’s inventive non-profit — and Atlanta’s only family-friendly makerspace (that’s us!)

It will be a night you won't want to miss with unrehearsed hilarity (they'll be making it up!) provided by professional improvisors from across Atlanta and special guest stars.  Funds raised will help get more people of all ages creating and learning by building and making with additional equipment and programming, support all our youth outreach, and add to the general fund to keep membership accessible for everyone.

Just like improv, we can’t do this without YOU!

Tickets:
- $20 for General Admission (Tables of 4 are $80). 

- $15 for members of Decatur Makers (a discount code will be emailed to the community).

- $40 for VIP Tickets which include a drink ticket, raffle tickets, and a cool goodie bag of gifts.

What We're Making

What a cool patina effect on this metal table built and finished by our member Brandon from Bunch Welding & Fabrication for the folks at The Raging Burrito! Stop by the restaurant, ask to sit at this table for a delicious meal and a margarita, and let'em know you know it was made at Decatur Makers! #smallbusiness #metalworking
We hosted an amazing group of creative students from The LIFE School; They got hands-on in our woodshop designing and building catapults in a collaboration between their Geometry and Physics classes. Next project: a life sized trebuchet! 
 
With the help of several members, Otto was born at Decatur Makers this week! With a 3D printed body, sensors and motors run by an Arduino Nano tucked inside, this little bot was a bit tipsy to start but is now dancing his way through life. Info available to make your own Otto robot at https://www.ottodiy.com/. But it's just more fun building it at Decatur Makers...
Huge shout-out to Stanley Black and Decker for all this new equipment! We shared our space with them as they worked on an autonomous excavator project, and they said thank you. We are loving all the shiny new toys!
