Yellow caution tape blocks off the area. Red arrows and a circle highlight the damaged ceiling and the buckets collecting water.

Our roof is failing, and leaks are actively damaging the space and our equipment.

We've launched a $20,000 fundraiser to fully address the damage. If this space has meant something to you, now is the time to help protect it. 💜

A festive Halloween-themed flyer for Root Access Hackerspace’s “Pumpkin Hacking” event. The background features orange and beige tones with hanging pumpkins, spiderwebs, and vines. The headline reads “Root Access Hackerspace: Pumpkin Hacking.” Text below says, “You bring the pumpkin, we’ll bring the tools, paints, and flair!” Three photos show examples of activities: laser engraving a pumpkin, carving with tools, and colorful 3D-printed decorations like spiders and witch hats. The event details read: “October 29th @ 6PM–10PM, 1476 N. Van Ness Ave.” The Root Access logo appears at the bottom.
