Cascade STEAM: Bellingham Linux Users Group Meeting (BLUG)

Details

Each BLUG meetup will be in three parts: the first half hour will be arrival and community support. Need help installing some app or flavor of Linux? Make sure to show up early and partake in the wisdom from some of our more experienced members. After that, we will have guest sessions. Do you have ideas on what you would like to present or want to present yourself? Let us know! After the presentations are done, we will have a general social time to get to know each other and to collaborate on new things.

Meetings:

We meet monthly every third Wednesday of the month from 5:30pm – 7:00pm at the Bellingham Makerspace.
