Project: Project
🚀 We're excited to launch our first-ever 4–6 week build cohort where you'll work on a project of your choice alongside other local makers!
The goal is simple: move your project forward and get it to some kind of milestone you set for yourself.
Whether you're starting from scratch or have been working on something for a while, this cohort provides the accountability and community support to help you make real progress.
Your Only Commitments
Bring a project idea (even if rough)
Attend weekly 1-hour meetings to share a short update
💡 Optional: At the end, there will be an opportunity to share your progress at the evening Astoria Tech Meetup — but presenting is completely optional.
Program Details
📅 When
Looking at starting the 2nd or 3rd week of September. We'll coordinate precisely when and what weekly date/time works for the cohort.

💰 Cost

We also have mentors available if you're looking for some guidance on your project.
