Last week we held Hack Night for the first time.  A dozen passion-filled folks showed up.  Projects were pushed forward, pizza and a few cold brews were consumed, and everyone said “DO IT AGAIN.”  So we are.  The 2nd and 4th Mondays of each month will now officially be HACK NIGHTS!  If you don’t know what Hack Night is….read on.

Do you have a side project (or three) that you have been neglecting? Do you desire an open environment to exchange ideas, concepts and demos? Want to garner input and feedback on your TOP SECRET project? If so, Hack Night is for you!

Hack Night is an open invitation for everyone to come and work on their projects at Impromptu Studio. It doesn’t matter if you are working on a php backend for a website, a digital art piece, or knitting your Grandma a sweater. Come out and interact with others and see what everyone is up to!

Hack Night starts around 6pm on the 2nd and 4th Monday of every month. Hack Night goes until all the creative juices have been exhausted. Snacks are welcome. If a few people chip-in, pizza may get ordered. Of course, caffeine will be consumed in large quantities. We hope to see you at the next Hack Night!

We’ve decided to offer 2 new membership plans here at Impromptu Studio. The first one is a daily membership card that is $75 for 5 days of coworking (the difference from our $50/5 day monthly plan being that these don’t expire) We’ve been working with Rich Drake of VR ID Cards and Tweetup Badges to make rechargeable QRID readable cards that allow us to track everyone digitally by scanning your membership cards. We are pretty excited about this new option and the awesome technology behind it.

Our second new membership plan is our “Partner in Business and Innovation” plan this plan is $550 a month and allows for a full time desk as well as priority scheduling for events and classes. We’ve always allowed members to throw events but have had to work out additional fees for those wanting to use our space to hold a class which they charged admission for. Now with this plan everything is included in one price. We will also be recognizing our “Partners in Innovation” members with an additional “plaque” so that others who work here or stop by realize that they are doing a large part toward making Impromptu a sustainable reality.

If you want to inquire about either of these plans please contact us at info@impromptustudio.com or on twitter @impromptustudio

Since opening our doors August 4th, 2008 we have had the pleasure of meeting and working with many people. The video below recaps a few of our favorite moments from the last few months.
