About us
Welcome to a space where community, culture, and connection come together on Columbia Pike: South Arlington’s hidden Main Street and truly a world in a zip code.
Hosted by the Columbia Pike Partnership, this group brings people together through social events, community programs, and local experiences designed to make it easy (and fun) to meet new people.
What you’ll find here:
- Happy Hours that are actually fun – themed nights like karaoke, wine tastings, DIY activities, and seasonal celebrations, often with games, interactive elements, and giveaways (Pike swag, drink tickets, and surprises)
- Columbia Pike Lunch Club – monthly lunches at locally owned Pike restaurants featuring guest speakers such as County Board members, nonprofit leaders, and small business owners
- Community & civic-engagement events – learn what’s happening in South Arlington and how to get involved
- Opportunities to support local businesses and nonprofits while connecting with neighbors
This group is for people who want to:
- Meet new people and make new friends
- Try foods from around the world in one zip code
- Enjoy social events that make it easy to talk to people (even if you come solo)
- Listen to local speakers and be part of community conversations
- Network in a relaxed, welcoming way
You don’t need to live on Columbia Pike to join, all are invited. Come for the food, stay for the people, and leave feeling more connected to South Arlington.
