About us
Hello, and welcome to Do Stuff, Make Friends! 🎉
We're a social group created for people in their late 20s and early 30s, dedicated to organizing fun and exciting events. Whether you’re looking to meet new people, try new activities, or simply have a great time, you’re in the right place.
We host a wide variety of events designed to bring people together- from casual nights out for drinks and conversations to checking out annual Winnipeg events, enjoying seasonal activities, visiting museums, and so much more!
Please take a moment to read through the group rules, and feel free to reach out to us with any questions or concerns. We’re here to help and excited to meet you!

✅ Group Rules:
- Conduct:
Please be respectful to all members and organizers. Racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, or any other bigoted behavior will not be tolerated. - Attendance:
If you RSVP for an event but can’t make it, please update your RSVP as soon as possible to free up your spot. For events that require reservations or have long waitlists, cancellations made less than 24 hours before the event may count as no-shows. If you no-show for 2 or more events, you may be temporarily banned from attending future events. - This is not a dating group:
While connections may naturally form, this group’s primary focus is on building friendships and creating a positive social space. Unwanted advances or inappropriate behavior are not acceptable. If someone makes you feel uncomfortable, please reach out to an organizer - we're here to help. - Age & Eligibility:
Unless explicitly stated otherwise, all events are 18+ only. This group is primarily intended for people in their 20s and 30s. There’s some flexibility for your plus-ones, but most events won’t be suitable for minors. - Alcohol & Behavior:
Some events may take place at venues that serve alcohol. Moderate drinking is fine, but excessive consumption or disruptive behavior will not be tolerated - especially if it endangers you or others.
---
Breaking any of the stated rules may result in either a temporary or permanent ban.
Our main goal is to create an atmosphere where all members feel included and welcome. Any behavior that impedes this goal will be dealt with on a case by case basis.
If another attendee’s behavior ever makes you feel uncomfortable or violates the rules listed above, please let one of the event hosts or organizers know. We want to keep our community welcoming, safe, and enjoyable for everyone - and we rely on your feedback to address issues and uphold that standard.

📽️ Movie Night: The Samurai and the Prisoner
Dave Barber Cinematheque, 100 Arthur St, Winnipeg, MB, CA📽️ Movie Night - The Samurai and the Prisoner
Join us for a Meetup movie night as we watch Kiyoshi Kurosawa's new film, The Samurai and the Prisoner. I've watched a few of Kurosawa's films, and they're usually rather surreal and unsettling at times. I'm curious to see what he's created this time.
Overview:
"When Lord Murashige rises up against the tyrannical Oda, he finds himself besieged within the walls of his own castle. Isolated, he is confronted with a series of mysterious crimes that shatter the fragile order of his court, plunging the fortress into fear and suspicion. Helped by his wife Chiyoho and his most loyal generals, Murashige must uncover the truth before the castle falls."
--------------------------------------
Attendees are responsible for purchasing their tickets in advance
🎟️ Tickets are $12 and can be purchased through this link 🎟️
The theater does require seats to be selected at the time of purchase. On this event page, I made sure to upload a photo of the seating chart and highlighted the seat that I reserved.
To ensure that you sit with the rest of the group, be sure to select a seat near the center of the H row*
