Start small but regularly.

"First friday of the month, we meet up to talk about the projectand see what we can do. Bring your friends."

That's how we started a hackerspace, at a pizzeria once in a month, showing off arduino project, discussing about possibilities. One day, we filled half the restaurant and knew we were ready to find a more permanent home". It took about a year to grow to that point.
