Well, jk, it’s actually an impersonator.
In all seriousness, though, the six-year-old East Baltimore hackerspace, located in an industrial park off Route 40, is facing rising rent and utilities. At the same time, several longtime members left all at once for a number of reasons. As a result, the space is eight members short of being financially stable, said Baltimore Hackerspace President Michael Hammond.
To raise the money, the organization launched a crowdfunding campaign on IndieGoGo with a goal of raising $5,000.

Hammond adds that the space is open to partnering with companies for networking, allowing employees to use the space or promoting products while allowing members to teach classes with them.
