OPEN DOOR - MANZAT EXPERIMENTA
MANZAT - FRANCE
3rd to 9th August 2020
Vulca Experimenta methodology includes one week immersion in the town of our Proof Of Concept partners.
We know how much is important to see on spot the community and their dynamic to really understand it remotely. So we offer an unique experience to those who want to visit a Makerspace project which starts by including residency for M-Hackers from the beginning.
The first open door week will be organized in Manzat (Fr) and we invite our network to join the future Makerspace including 6 residencies for m_hackers between the 3rd and 9th August 2020. (The next open door will be in 2021 in Casa Branca – Portugal)
