Events, Workshops, and Presentations

A repository for event, workshop, and presentation submissions.

Welcome

to Baltimore Code & Coffee's repository for events and topics.

This repo helps us organize and schedule upcoming events including workshops, presentations, hack-a-thons, lightning talks and more.

Upcoming Events

There are currently no events scheduled for Baltimore Code & Coffee.

Interested in facilitating an event? Check out the process to submit one.

Facilitate an Event

Great! In order to keep track of events (potential, upcoming, and past), we want

Process to Submit an Event

  1. Fill out an Issue for the kind of event you're interested in hosting during a Code and Coffee. If you're not sure what kind of an event you want to host, look below at Types of Events.
  2. Once it's submitted, an organizer will review the submission. They will reach out with questions (if any) and to confirm a date. They may ask clarifying questions to make sure we can accommodate your event and we can make sure to include it in our next meet up event page.
  3. Once a date is agreed upon, we'll put your event on our calendar and including in the meet up event!

Types of Events

Talk

A talk is a person or group presenting about a specific topic or subject. It can include a demonstration, but generally doesn't have a lot of audience participation outside of answering questions or inciting a discussion. This is also a good option if you want to practice a talk for a conference.

If you are interested giving a talk, fill out a talk issue.

Workshop

Like a talk, this is usually lead by a person or a group on a specific topic but also leads the audience in one or more exercises. In the past, we've had workshops on docker, introduction to python, etc.

If you are interested in hosting a workshop, fillout a workshop issue

Lightning Talk

About once a quarter, we like to host a space for lightning talks. These are usually 10-15 minute talks people have prepared (or not) about a specific topic. The purpose of these could be informative, sharing about a personal project or issue, etc. If you are interested in participating in our next Lightning Talk event, submit one at lightning talk issue

Please see the guidlines for more information on how the talks are run Lightning Talk Guidelines

Event

This is more general than the first two options. Do you want to host a mini-hackathon? Or your event isn't quite described in the descriptions abve? Fill out an event issue.

FAQs

Q: Can I just show up and present something?

A: Maybe? But we can't guarantee space. Some of the reasons why we use this issue submission system are:

  • We want to make sure we have the space to accomodate our normal operations in addition to presentations.
  • We don't want to double book presentations/events so people don't have to pick which one(s) to go to.
  • We want to give attendees a heads up in case those interested can make more of an effort to attend.

Q: Is there a reason why an event may get denied?

A: Only if we feel that the event is inappropriate for our event.

Q: I want to host an event not at Code and Coffee/longer than Code and Coffee hours. What should I do?

Unfortunately we cannot host an event not during a Code and Coffee event. We reserve our space for the times scheduled.
