+- Clear work surfaces and arrange chairs as needed.
 - Ensure the space doesn't have too much trash before you open. If there is, consider [throwing them out](/space/procedures/trash), but only if it is safe to do so.
 - Adjust lighting and music as needed before the event.
-- Put out the e-ink panel, direction magnets, and sign board if desired.
-- Prop open the door for open events.
+### Put out the signage
+- Find and hang up [the e-ink panel](/hardware/eink-sign) by the building front door downstairs.
+  - Make sure the sign is displaying correctly (the timestamp matches). It may need power cycling or even charging.
+  - The display side of the sign needs to be facing outwards. Also make sure it's hung at about eye level.
+- Put up the direction magnets:
+  - One for inside the elevator, pointing to the \[2] button.
+  - One for outside the elevator on the first floor, right next to the door and can be easily seen from outside.
+- Prop open the space door. There should be a rubber door stop nearby.
