Drumbeat/events

Local, community-run events are a core part of the Drumbeat strategy. These events invite teachers, artists, filmakers, bloggers, lawyers, web developers and anyone else who cares about the internet to talk about building and protecting the open web for the future. They also provide a place where people can contribute their skills and creativity to practical projects that make the open web better.
