Organising an Event

You want to help us spread the love for tech, science, art and design, and organise an event? Go for it!

Here is a "Wiki express" so that everyone has the basics:

• Send an email to board@hackuarium.ch — to make sure there is no conflict with another event
• Someone on the board will check that the space is free
• Build a wiki page for the event (see template below)
• Our 'communications coordinator' will get in touch to ask for content and will make sure the announcements are made on all the social media outlets for Hackuarium!
• In case you need a microgrant to cover the costs (up to 300.-), send an email to board@hackuarium.ch with a description (what, when, who) and a preliminary budget.
• When all this is arrange, talk to the community, to spread the word —> use slack and facebook at least!
• Is it a WORKSHOP? All the previous & make sure you get your logistics right! (and use the tag at the bottom of the page)
• Is there a SIMILAR workshop ALREADY planned? If yes, negotiate dates and: Do you target the SAME people? If yes, negotiate. If not, no problem. It maybe interesting to see what others do.

Template for an Hackuarium event

First, create a line for your event on the main page under the [Main_Page#Events | Event section] using the following line:

 :<li>'''201X.XX.XX''' Wednesday 19:00-22:00: [[201XXXXX_TITLE | TITLE]] - SHORT DESCRIPTION

Make sure the date, time and title are provided. Save the main page.
The event will appear with a link. By clicking on this link you will create the event page.
The following must be added to the event page (replace XXX by appropriate values):
