JellyInPortlandJelly in Portland is just getting started. Add your name to the list of supporters if you'd like to help!

(password: j311y ...That's "j", three, one, one, "y")

 

What is this "Jelly"?

Jelly is an every-so-often casual coworking session. Anyone is welcome to come, bring your laptop, art supplies, or whatever, and work alongside other creative, fun people. Hope to see you there! See WorkAtJelly.com and this blog post for more background. Email if you want to start your own!

 

Jelly is Portland's new free co-working group. We'll each work on our own thing in the same space. Meet new friends, share common interests, trade ideas, brainstorm, get some work done, and maybe even get some business referrals.

 

Bring your laptop or an old-fashioned notebook, as well as something you're working on: whether it's an online business, an art project, coding, writing or something else.
