All About Connection: The Twin Cities Atlassian Community Social

About the Event:

The goal of this event is simple: get to know your neighbors! Join us for a laid-back evening getting to know other Atlassian users in the Minneapolis-St Paul Area. Big thanks to the Improving team for hosting our first annual social event.

We’ll have food, beer, cider, N/A options, and more, plus a few games to make the most of our time together.

Plan to arrive between 5 and 6 for this casual “mixer” event, and we’ll wrap around 7. Throughout the event, we’ll sprinkle in some trivia and icebreakers to help you get to know each other.

Registration is Required: 

All attendees must preregister for the event here, and check-in upon arrival: https://ace.atlassian.com/events/details/atlassian-minneapolis-twin-cities-presents-all-about-connection-the-twin-cities-atlassian-community-social/ (For those who follow us on Meetup, please register at this link so we have an accurate headcount for seating, food, and beverages!)

Parking, Transit, and Venue Notes:

This venue is across the street from the Diamonds Coffee Shoppe/the Thorp Building in Northeast Minneapolis. Parking is available onsite behind the building; you'll enter the lot off of Central Ave and head past the front entrance to the right. This takes you toward Sociable Cider Werks. You can enter through the back door; it will look a little industrial as you head down the hallway to the event space, but we'll have signage so you know you're in the right spot. 

Biking? Awesome! There are several designated bikeways as you head to Improving, as well as bike lanes along Central Ave. Check out the Minneapolis biking map here.

The Improving space is formerly Object Partners, Inc — just in case this rings a bell to any registrants!

Accessibility Notes: 

There is limited reserved parking in front of the building for folks that need it.
