Introduction

OSE plans to hire an event organizer as soon as we work out the details of the event marketing protocol.

Event organization of Extreme Manufacturing Workshops has these steps:

Research Suitable Workshop Locations based on OSE criteria for location, quality of space, qualities of host, cost, access, participant experience, etc.
Select a Workshop Venue based on OSE criteria
Create a Workshop Registration Page
Post a Workshop Event Announcement using OSE Templates including reg
Run a 3D Printer Workshop Publicity Campaign
Run the workshop and collect data on its performance - reviews from customers

Here we formalize procedures for securing a venue for a build of a 3D printer.

Understand general considerations regarding a venue
Understand Requirements for a 3D Printer Workshop Venue
Review a survey of workable Venue Types that are worth pursuing. Between libraries, schools, conference centers, churches, community spaces - and OSE's public mission - we qualify for space.
Identify 5 venues each from all the different categories in step 3. Using this list of 40, it should take 4 hours of calling to secure a venue.
Reach out to OSE community for assistance.
