Unpacking

Everyone brought materials and equipment for themselves and others to use. On top of what we brought and purchased we were sponsored by several incredible companies. We started unpacking materials and setting up the different workspaces: sewing, ironing, printing, weaving, knitting, and CNC. The spaces for the exhibit and workshops also got set up and ready for the participants coming tomorrow!
