Meet the Members of the East Bay WordPress Meetup

People come to the East Bay WordPress Meetup (and to WordPress itself) from many different backgrounds. We welcome you no matter what your race, age, gender, sexual orientation, or coding experience.

What We Do

Every month the East Bay WordPress Meetup brings together both newbies and experts to talk about everything WordPress.

This meetup is mainly for people who build WordPress sites for a living, though we welcome anyone who is interested in learning more about how to use WordPress.

If you have a suggestion for a meetup topic or would like to present, contact the meetup organizer.

Meeting Format

Meetups last 2.5 hours and usually follow the following format:

  • Pizza
  • Introductions
  • Quick demo by a meetup member
  • Open Q & A
  • Main Presentation

Once each year we hold a Contributor Day where members of the group contribute to WordPress

#wp15 Party

The East Bay WP Meetup had a party in honor of #wp15, the 15th Anniversary of the launch of WordPress. In addition to the cake, balloons, and stickers, we grouped together to improve our meetup space by adding felt pads to the feet of the heavy metal chairs in the cafeteria.
