The Berkeley Group

Welcome to 'The Berkeley Group'!

A creative, progressive, savvy and smart group for anyone that's new to Berkeley, lives, works, studies or would like to experience the uniqueness of Berkeley while having lots of fun and making new friends! Geared towards 30 (and more) somethings, we do welcome everyone to share and enjoy those very sought after Berkeley experiences!

We organize a variety of social, artistic, intellectual and outdoor activities in and around Berkeley. From getting together to "Toast Berkeley", brunches and bites to attending jazz and street festivals: chances are we will schedule something that interests you. If you'd like to organize an event, please let us know!

Events cost $2-$5 since meetup charges organizers $20/month to maintain the group.
