Birmingham is getting a POP-UP SHOP on February 8th and 9th - shops that pop up in vacant space to show you what it 'can' be fully occupied. February's Pop-Up Shop will feature locally-made products that you've likely never seen before - made just for Birmingham for Valentine's Day. Invite your friends at http://www.facebook.com/events/531469800211033

Ready for the kind of small scale manufacturing that you see on Fab.com? Birmingham may soon (this year) get an innovative concept called a Maker Space - where designers, architects, dreamers and builders can create. Know a maker? Ask them to fill out the 90 second survey available at this link to help build the space to Birmingham's needs. http://bit.ly/V8SrGa
