Welcome to the LARP Alliance Meetup Group!
We are a non-profit 501c, education and charity based corporation dedicated to promoting the art and hobby of LARP (Live Action Role Playing). In addition, we assist new and current LARPers and events by providing information and supply resources, transportation for players, classes, media tools, and more. Here you will find a fastly growing group of people who love LARP or are interested in jumping into LARP. You will also find numerous events and games that we play in, assist, and promote, as well as events and games in other parts of the state and beyond.
*The movie 'Role Models' features a LARP game called LAIRE, and we became involved when Adrianne Grady of the LARP Alliance was hired on as the technical advisor on set - we arranged to have actual LARPers in the film, and the weapons were provided by Iron Liege, a custom American LARP weapon builder.
Weapon-building classes, Dramatic coaching, Live Combat Fighter Practices and other classes are taught by the various Guilds of the LARP Alliance. We have yet to establish these Guilds in this neck of the woods, but when we do this Meetup will act as main point of communication between them and people interested in learning from them.
We also have regular Meetups; a monthly Meetup in Marietta and plans for additional social gatherings in the near future.
We run LARPQuest, which are events that have LARP elements, as a promotional tool for the hobby.
We are always looking for new people to join the hobby! As an organization based on promotion and education, we are also looking for individuals with select skills (photography, web design, costume design) that would be willing to donate time, experience or other contributions to our efforts.
