BarCamp is about participation not observation"

BarCamp is a local, ad-hoc "un-conference" where those attending determine what will be presented. Sessions, discussions, demos and interaction occur from everyone attending, not a select panel of speakers. BarCamp provides an open environment for learning and sharing knowledge.

Unlike conventional conferences, BarCamp is 100% free.

BarCamp is typically geared towards technology topics, but considering all of the creative diversity in Charleston, we want to broaden the scope and encourage artists, writers, designers, non-profits, and more to participate.

Bottom line: BarCamp is what you make of it!
