Being discussed since mid-2009 and building since August 2010, Garoa Hacker Clube is now officially up and running. We are currently running projects and activities. Since Nov 18 2010 there is be a weekly Arduino night. We have been in a permanent space since September 2010, and it is constantly being improved. We still need to purchase lots of equipment. We have a Cupcake CNC, Arduinos and other embedded platforms, basic electronics, power supplies, a function generator, an analog oscilloscope, soldering irons and PCB manufacturing tools, old hardware, books, oldschool video games and a homebrew pinball machine. On February 20th 2011 we have setup a non-profit association to support our finances and organization. |

Garoa Hacker Clube is a hackerspace in São Paulo, the largest city in Brazil and South America.
Garoa is an open and collaborative infrastructure provider for technology enthusiasts that create projects related to many areas such as security, harware, electronics, robotics, modelism, software, biology, music, arts and whatever can be imagined.
In other words, it is a community-run laboratory where people can exchange knowledge and experiences, meet, socialize, collaborate and share.
Our core principles are:
- free and universal access to knowledge generated under our premises
- self-funding through our member fees and community donations
- freedom for members to propose and implement individual or group projects

We're located on the basement of the House of Digital Culture (CCD), at Rua Vitorino Carmilo 459, São Paulo, 01153-000.

Some members have the key to the space, and we usually hang out there on weekends and at night on special days during the week. We are at walking distance from subway station Marechal Deodoro on line 3 (red) of the metrô (subway).
