Wednesday, November 04, 2009 from 6:00 PM - 9:00 PM (ET)
Looking for the scoop on what Election Day results mean? Join SoJusters for Cocktails for Justice at Mantra* the day after the elections, Wednesday, November 4th at 6:00pm!
Ever wondered how to work a room at a cocktail party? Then join us from 6-7pm for a special skillshare called "The Art of the Schmooze". Robbie Samuels, SoJust's Co-Organizer will cover the tools you'll need, how to set goals, how to initiate a conversation and perhaps most important - how to exit gracefully. You'll be able to put your new skills into practice right away when Cocktails for Justice - with no speaker or program - begins at 7pm.
Don't drink? That's fine. Plenty of folks don't. The emphasis here is less on the cocktails and more on the socializing. And even more so on the justice.
RSVP at www.sojust.org Newcomers always welcomed!
Cost: $2 to cover group expenses.
Join us if you want to cross-promote your events and campaigns, are new to the area and looking for groups to get involved in, or you've been looking for like-minded progressives to hang with in Boston. Newcomers always welcomed!
At SoJust events you can hang out with friends, make new ones, find a date, get the scoop on a job, and find out what's going on this weekend - political or social. And the best part is that SoJust members share your vision of building a more just world.
No Program. No Speaker. Just us.
Hey organizers! If you're involved with a group or project and want to spread the word bring flyers for the free lit table - and there'll be lots of opportunity to schmooze and network.
*Located near Park Street T stop (Green & Red Line) and Downtown Crossing (Orange Line). The entrance is a little tricky to spot - look for the big 52. Check out their menu at www.mantrarestaurant.com.
From our FAQs:
"It's not very easy for me to meet new people and I'm not really one for small talk."
We hear you. That's why at SoJust events, in addition to traditional
name tags, we have "Ask Me About" and "Looking For" tags. That way you
can slap whatever you're into lately up on your shirt and wait for
fellow SoJusters to approach you. These seem to do the trick of moving
past the basic "what do you do for work? “Where do you live?" questions
to conversations that lead to more substantial connections.
"What actually happens at events?"
You'll always be greeted by friendly folks who can help get you
socializing, introduce you to people, and chat with you about questions
or wishes. It's likely a few people will be there promoting their
campaigns and issues (yes, SoJust welcomes that sort of behavior).
At our bigger events, there's always a literature table to toss down
flyers, postcards, and other paraphenalia about events around town.
Most importantly, we can pretty much guarantee there will be someone
there you've never met before. As one of our members said, "You are
bringing together people who might never get together otherwise - if
that ain't a step towards justice I don't know what is."
SoJust is all about getting offline and connecting in person to create a cross-issue progressive movement!
