Ever wondered what a FabLab is? What it does? Interested in tinkering, technology and making? If so, #TakeoverThursdays at the Nerve Centre FabLab are for you. 

For three hours every Thursday evening in September, October and November, the FabLab team are throwing open the doors to anyone who is interested to come in train and use the Lab free of charge, but also to take the whole space over to develop and suggest projects, themes and activities that can take place there. 

Whether its a 'Build your own 3D Printer Club', a digital farming group, furniture making night or even a Pokemon Go Makers night, just come along and suggest the theme and the FabLab team will help you to make it happen. #TakeoverThursdays are when the FabLab becomes your lab. 

Users are welcome to simply come along and use the Lab to design, make and learn, but they are encouraged to do more and help to develop a real community and culture of grass-roots making and technology in the City.
