It's been suggested that DoES should have some re-usable promotional materials, to display during events.

eg: we're going to have a presence at the upcoming Young Makefest, and the Library is letting us leave stuff set up for the rest of that weekend, so it'd be good to have some posters or banners that explain:

  • What DoES is (community, makerspace, co-working space)
  • Something about the DoES ethos?
  • How to join DoES (membership pricing, social media handles)

@Jackie1050 says DoES has a black metal display we could maybe re-use for this. It has space to accommodate a large poster in the centre.

It has been agreed that we can spend some money on this - especially if the stuff we make is reusable.

Here’s a potential pull-up banner layout, that builds on text provided by Helen:

Pull-up banners are super cheap these days, and easy to carry around. We should be able to get one printed and shipped in a few days. Eg: £40 inc VAT, with 48 hour turnaround.

This looks ideal for Young Makefest. If everyone's happy with this, could we order one asap.

@DoESsean I am ashamed to say, no, I’ve not saught permission, mostly since the photo has already been public on the DoES flickr account for 6 years https://www.flickr.com/photos/doesliverpool/7687413932 😟
