Gather Together is our monthly meetup where anyone in our community can come hang out and build their social network. Move to the area recently? Going through a big life transition and looking to meet new folks? Wanting to counter your social anxiety and get a little connection practice? This is a great space to hang out and simply be yourself and build your social network.
​
How it works:
1. We greet you at the door so you don't wonder if you're in the right place.
2. We orient you to the room, snacks, name tags.
3. We introduce you to other folks to help you get started.
4. Our hosts loosely facilitate the social, ensuring everyone is able to participate comfortably in their own unique way.
​
We have snacks, drinks, and games and activities for all ages. Bring yourself, a neighbor, your family. Feel free to sit and knit or draw while you listen and and chat with others. Most of all, just be yourself!

MARISSA, she/her
“Just wanted to say, Thank you for last nights' group!! I opened up to pure strangers and it finally felt like it was "Normal"! And, more important, is that I felt safe and understood!! Thank you again!”
EMILY, they/them
“I often have a difficult time finding spaces where I can be my full weird self instead of to lessen my weirdness to blend in, especially in person events. Social Tinkering has been great at helping to fill this void.”
STEVE, he/him
"It was a wonderful way to simply connect with others on a different level and forge connections to make positive changes in the community.“
