Building Our New Common Room

wallsOn Friday, a big pile of timber arrived on our loading bay. On Saturday we turned it into our common room. Well we are a maker space after all!

We built sections on the floor and lifted them into position. If you remember our common room from Chancery Lane…….. well this room will be bigger and warmer too. We’ll be finishing it off over the next week or two and building some other rooms. Pics here.

As its a festive time of the year we picked ice skating. This actively only shows up in our fair city a few months of the year so why not make use of it.

For the next few months both versions of Tog will still continue to run but the old unincorporated association will be phased out. We now have a board of directors to handle the day to day running our the space.They were voted in and will be taking instruction from our membership.  If you are unsure how all this works do get in touch and we are happy to explain any parts of it.

  • Shane Phelan
  • Andrew Felle
