While every day is a Drupal coworking day at Droplabs, we're doing something different on Drupal Coworking Fridays and will provide light food and drinks all day. These are being hosted by Christefano and Paul Chernick, two of the Droplabs founders.
After the day is over, a group of us will go to a nearby restaurant or pub. In the past we've had beers and a bonfire and were serenaded by Skrillex. We've also gone to a variety of other locations, including Barbara's at The Brewery (at 620 Moulton Ave., just a 5 minute walk away) and Carnitas Michoacan (on 1901 N. Broadway, just a 5 minute drive away).

After tonight's general members meeting at Droplabs, we're participating in a large BBQ with our neighbors at Big Art Labs. Join us! We're going to be in Droplabs and by the BBQ and fire pit from 8pm-11:30pm.
The Droplabs members meeting and BBQ are both free to attend and this is a great opportunity to meet and socialize with your coworkers at Droplabs as well as the musicians, builders, welders, animators, engineers and documentarians (to name a few) that work at Big Art Labs.
Rumor has it that there will be an outdoor movie on the big screen tonight as well as rollerskating in our large parking lot. This is your chance to break your lawn chairs and rollerskates out of storage!
What to bring
Bring warm clothing and some light food, sodas or beers to share with others. Be a hero and bring good stuff to throw on the grill. Feel free to bring your business cards, but this is a social occasion and you can leave your laptop at home, in the car or in your locker at Droplabs.
