---Work in Progress---

Workshops should be a Hands-On event.
Workshops should have something started (preferably completed) by the end.
Workshops seem to do best around 2 hours.
Limit the number of attendees to a reasonable amount. About 10 seems to be an upper limit.
Practice a couple of times first. Pacing is hard to guess at.
Materials and supplies are typically paid for out of pocket, but can be recouped through workshop fees. Meetup now supports required payment through Wepay. Remember to account for merchant fees and consider building in a reasonable donation to the space in the fee. Michael Lane can help with determining a reasonable fee.
