What we’re about
Welcome to our Make New Friends Meetup group! Whether you're new in town or a longtime local, we invite you to join us for a variety of fun activities and expand your social circle.
From Game Nights to crafts, cooking classes to book clubs, and dinner with a movie to sharing hobbies (and learning new ones), there's something for everyone.
We provide ways to have fun while connecting with new people. Connect with like-minded individuals and create lasting friendships. Let's make new memories and friendships together!
A few things to mention:
**This is NOT a dating group. While it's possible to meet, connect, and have it bloom into romance, you shouldn't come to this group to seek that out.
**Recent, accurate photos are required.
**If you have an event to suggest, please do so! We love new ideas!
We look forward to meeting you! Join us today.

Through gentle guided prompts and intentional reflection, you’ll gain clarity about what you want to welcome into your life in 2026—how you want to feel, what you want to nurture, and what you’re ready to release. Together, we’ll explore the themes, dreams, and possibilities that matter most to you, and you’ll leave with a clear vision for the year to come.
