On Oct 2nd, 2015 Shapeways hosted it’s 4th community meetup in Athens, Greece with the Athens School of Fine Arts. The Meetup took place at the amazing Circuits and Currents Project Space where local designers, students,  and academics, including members from the Museum of Paleontology all came together to participate in the Shapeways Athens meetup.

We had a whopping turn out of over 250+ people for the Shapeways Meetup in Athens – we had our crew members give presentations discussing 3D printing material, 3D software, and a crash-course on how to use the Shapeways website.

Our Meetup consisted mostly of a discussion with the audience, where Shapeways community members were able to answer questions and demonstrate 3D printed designs.

We would like to give a special shout out to the community members who helped put all of this together:
