What is Gumbo Labs?
We're a group of people with common interests who collectively rent a studio for meeting, socializing, collaborating, learning and teaching. Common interests include: technology, art, tinkering, electronics, inventing, etc. We've organized as a non-profit educational corporation & we're in the process of applying for 501(c)(3) status.Communication
