A flash mob (or flashmob) is a large group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, perform an unusual and pointless act for a brief time, then quickly disperse.

I don't know about you, but I think Anchorage REALLY needs to do things like this! Do you want to create joy in others simply by doing something they didn't expect? Then this is the group for you!

Spread the word!

Flashmobs are fun and exciting and really just another way to get together and show a sense of community (ok, that last one is a stretch).

 

Here are some examples of some great flash mobs in action:
