Come make new connections in a casual, low-pressure environment.
New to the area? Lost touch with your old buddies? Feeling a little lonely? We get it. Join us for an afternoon of making new connections, but in a less intimidating way than just showing up somewhere. Everyone attending is looking to make a friend too. Who knows--you might meet your new bestie!
We'll start with a lightning round where we rotate so you get to meet everyone. Then we'll have time to hang out afterward and chat, play games, or make crafts with your new friend(s)!
For ages 18+
Registration recommended.
