Join us for a Tech Talk at Tech Shop! Join us for our regular series of informal info sessions designed to help you discover new tech and make the most of the tech you already have. We offer how-to’s, demos, and tutorials on hardware, software, apps, and products that might just change your world.

Who: Open to all

It would be great if you registered to let us know you’re coming, but drop-ins are also welcome! Bring your own device where indicated if you want, but that’s not required either; we can provide 1:1 tech consults or helpful how-to resources so you can DIY with confidence.
