The Open Source Lab's annual Beaver BarCamp "un-conference" is coming right up in Corvallis!
Date: Saturday, April 11, 2026, 9am - 6pm, PST
Place: Kelley Engineering Center, Oregon State University
Free registration with Google forms https://osl.io/barcamp2026
Beaver BarCamp 2026 website: https://beaverbarcamp.org/
Share your passion, connect with others, and learn something new at Beaver BarCamp.
This is an informal un-conference that has been hosted by the OSU Open Source Lab since 2006. We are excited to host this live in-person event where attendees can participate in sessions throughout the day or propose their own talk on a project, hobby or research interest. The subjects lean toward tech, but have been as diverse as knitting lessons. Help us fill OSU’s Kelley Engineering Center with interesting ideas and skills.
Everyone welcome: Open to students, staff, alumni, and community members.

Coffee breaks and beverages provided. You can bring a sack lunch or go to one of the many eateries nearby for a meal on your own.
