Hackerspace in Tbilisi

F0RTHSP4CE

A community-run hackerspace for technology, art, events, experiments, and the social side effects of all of those things.

What F0RTHSP4CE Is

F0RTHSP4CE is a hackerspace: a space made by its own community. People come here to learn, build, host events, work on projects, test ideas, and occasionally just exist around interesting people.

It is not a coworking subscription box or a repair service counter. The community keeps it alive by actually participating in it.

What Usually Happens Here

  • talks and lectures
  • workshops and build nights
  • electronics, radio, media, and software projects
  • study groups, reading groups, and film nights
  • quiet hacking, noisy hacking, and occasional social chaos

How To Visit

Best first option: come to a public event or open evening.

If you want to visit outside an event, write in the Ask to visit topic with your day, time, and purpose. Wait for a host to confirm. For a first visit, that usually means a resident.

Good To Know

  • Advance contact is recommended unless you are coming to a public event.
  • Guests are hosted. "Somebody is there" does not automatically mean "drop in".
  • Members can host a guest only when a resident is already in the space.
  • Some tools, rooms, and project areas are not public by default.

First-Visit Expectations

  • Ask before taking photos or video.
  • Ask before touching tools, equipment, or other people's projects.
  • Treat guest Wi-Fi like public Wi-Fi.
  • Expect a workshop/event environment, not a polished service desk.

Basic Safety Note

This is a real workshop and event space. Tools, hot things, fumes, stairs, cables, private projects, and unfinished ideas all exist here.

If you do not understand something, ask before you touch it.

How Events Work

  • Public events are announced in the channel and put in the calendar.
  • A resident space host is responsible for the event happening in the space.
  • A member can still be the event organizer, speaker, or session lead.
  • If you want to propose one, start with the events page.

How To Support The Space

  • drop cash into the donation box
  • donate useful tools or materials
  • host something, document something, fix something, or help the place stay alive
