Do you wish you could have more of the kinds of conversations you have late at night where for some reason, you feel safe talking about the things you actually care about?

Bring your friends (or come by yourself) and spend your Tuesday night at an event where you know everyone else is there for the same reason.

We'll be offering "big talk" conversational prompts on them to get you started, and we'll have lots of structure to make sure that you actually talk to people and that it's not awkward. Not feeling like answering a particular question?
No worries, we'll have plenty to choose from, like, "When are you the happiest?" and, "If you were going to become close friends with me, what would I need to know about you?" We'll give you ground rules to make sure you feel
comfortable and safe sharing as much of yourself as possible while still feeling in complete control of how much you divulge.

There will be drinks for sale! There is a 1 drink minimum purchase for this event, so please keep that in mind.

Check-in for this event will begin around 6:45 PM. Please do your best to arrive before 7:00 PM so we can begin as close to on time as possible.
