- Art Night has a pulse again thanks to the AHA Meet-up
- AM - Individual member space utilization (how much is allowed and for how long?) - Cleanup always expected. Larger items should be labelled. We are NOT a quick storage site so consensus being a) label personal stuff b) duration beyond 1 month should either be space paid for OR members notified goods at risk of dispersal (Ops to notify). 4/5 Directors agreed with this. Make it so.
