There's always something to do at xHain, may it clean an area that needs to be cleaned, sort screws out of screw jars, build shelves where there are shelves needed or just do things that improve day to day business. Do you want to change something or get to know the space and the people a bit better? Come to an infrastructure day, we usually start around 1PM.
Every second Saturday of the month, from 1PM to 7PM
We always love when people cook something for everyone or bring cake or cookies, but when everyone is busy with something else, there's always a good pizza around somewhere. The resources of our kitchen are small, if you've never seen the place before, maybe come over on a Monday or feel free to ask in the chat!
There will be loud noises from time to time, as people will build shelves and drill so many holes into the walls. We operate saws and drills around that time and carry some heavy things around, so be aware of your surroundings please. We have an air filter that's running at a limited speed to be not super loud, but the air gets bad after a while, with people working at the space.
A week before the Infrastructure days the curators should update the infrastructure pad and write it in a way, that hopefully people can work on this without them being there.

On Wednesday or Thursday before the infrastructure a mail should go out, trying to convince some people to show up, lure them with promises of food and friendships!
Feel free to get some (vegan) snacks beforehand and reimburse yourself or ask someone to help you with that. Six hours can be a long time till pizza is delivered or food is ready. Some people brought saved food from a nearby bakery as well.
If there are a lot of people showing up at the beginning, it's nice to do a quick introduction round. Ask people for their names and pronouns, what brings them to xHain, what they want to work on and if they need help(ers).
Say thank you afterwards and post something nice about the achievements of that day. And remind people to add future projects to the pad.
