Question 1

Where do I park?

Accepted Answer

The event is in a residential neighborhood at a private home. There is plenty of parking on Geneva Drive.

Question 2

What should I wear?

Accepted Answer

Whatever makes you comfortable! The whole purpose of the event it to help you feel a sense of belonging just as you are. Do you like dressing up in 50s rockabilly? Go for it! Coming straight from work in a suit? No problem. Already in your pajamas at this time of night? You do you!

Question 3

What if I'm shy?

Accepted Answer

Every type of person is welcome at this event. You will be asked to share answers to questions that may make you feel vulnerable (for example, What is one thing you've wanted to make true in your life that you haven't yet made true?). However, you will not have to initiate any conversations.

Question 4

What if socializing is easy for me?

Accepted Answer

Awesome! Come anyway! Our events work best if there are a mix of personality types.

Question 5

Will everyone already know each other?

Accepted Answer

No. Some folks will come with a friend, but most people come on their own and haven't ever met before. It's amazing to discover how much strangers have in common throughout the course of the evening.

Question 6

Will we be inside or outside?

Accepted Answer

Weather permitting, there will be the option to talk, connect, and play both inside and outside.

Question 7

What do I need to bring?

Accepted Answer

Just yourself, an open mind and heart, and a willingness to share yourself with others.

Question 8

Where did the idea for this event come from?

Accepted Answer

There are in-person "connection" events popping up all over the world in places like Australia (Conscious Connection) and New Zealand (Unchatter). Humans are literally hardwired for in-person connection. As we move more and more of our connection online, we sadly feel more disconnected than ever.
