What we’re about
Hi! Thank you for your interest in Montreal Mob of Angels** This group is for women, age 50 years and older. My hope in creating this group is to meet other like-minded women who want to socialize with the intention to form true friendships and community. If you are able to attend events in the Montreal area, interested in making IRL (In Real Life) friends, and willing to be an active member, I invite you to join. Members, please do check back occasionally to this About section for any updates.

**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 set out to teach her beloved craft to other women in NYC, where she was living. She gained a following of 50 loyal students which 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!)
