How to get into Ignite #2

subelsky — Thu, 29 Jan 2009 14:17:12 +0000

We are excited that Ignite #2 has completely sold-out. Here’s how to make sure you can gain entry to the event:

If You Have a Ticket

Please plan to arrive at The Windup Space by 6:30 pm. We will only be honoring RSVPs until 6:45 pm, after which time we’ll open the doors to the public.

If You Don’t Have a Ticket

Don’t worry, there’s still a good chance you can get in. Some people RSVP but don’t show up (because it’s a free event, after all). Plan to arrive around 6 pm and we’ll put your name on a waiting list. Then you can head over to Joe Squared pizza, or down Charles Street to one of the hang-out spots, and plan to come back by 6:45 pm.
