FAQ

Is there a group chat?

Yes, indeed, it’s #radiant-night in Looking Up’s Discord.

What does RADIANT stand for?

Responsible Adults Doing Interesting And Noteworthy Things

Are there any restrictions?

New attendees need to sign a safety waiver.

Quiet time begins at 10pm, so if the back door is open, we can’t operate the CNC router or any other power tools later in the evening. (Really though, just close the door.)

Can I learn to use the CNC router or laser?

Not at Radiant Night. Learning how to use these is fairly involved, so we offer classes, taught by a professional. Email manager@upside.art if you’d like to sign up for the next class.
