What we’re about
Hi! Thanks for your interest in Montreal Mob of Angels** This group is for women age 50+. I'm creating this group to meet like-minded women who want to socialize and form friendships and be part of a community. If you are able to attend events in the Montreal area and interested in making IRL (in real life) friends you're in the right place :-)

**The name of this group is inspired by the late gifted musician Layne Redmond (1952–2013). She was most famously known for her mastery of the frame drum, an instrument played primarily by women in the ancient Mediterranean world. She became intrigued as to why there were so many women drummers in ancient times but so few women drummers in the modern era. Layne taught her beloved craft to other women in NYC, where she was living, and gained a following of 50 loyal students. That led her to form the Mob of Angels, a frame drum group to honour and revive the tradition of ceremonial drumming. (This meetup group is not about drumming - I just thought Mob of Angels was a cool name for a women's group!)
