Events

The Side Quest Series is a temporary workshop program created in response to the unexpected closure of Diyode’s wood and metal shops. While these shops are closed to make the necessary fire and safety updates, our specialty shop and the great outdoors remains open and this series is designed to continue offering hands-on workshops that explore new materials, and skills.
