About us
****Yes, This group has won a Meetup Best Groups award, though I have no idea where to find a link to that!****
Philly Random Happenings is for anyone who likes fun and RANDOM activity. Games, Comedy, Parties, Networking, Music, Art and everything else! Singles, couples, and anything in-between! Indoor stuff, outdoor stuff, relaxed and casual, large events and small. Intense intellectual exercises and crazy wild ones, it's all good (and Random!)
New to Philadelphia? or a long-time resident? It's all good!
I strive to include creative activities that are much more stimulating than drinking contests or happy hours, in safe, friendly environments. Most are all-ages friendly! (a few are not)
PRH specialises in events that are bit out-of-the-ordinary!
I like to call it 'the thinking person's Meetup group'
Games? Live shows? Art? Music? Education and Inspiration?
You name it, and stick it in the Philly Randomizer...let's see who comes out!
Meet some new people, or reconnect with old ones. Tell us your likes and dislikes!
Past gatherings have included improv comedy shows, meditation events, game nights, concerts, dining, community events......
PRH is for exciting events in any Philadelphia neighborhood, from South Philly to West, Northeast to Port Richmond, Penn's Landing to University City! From time to time, we may explore the 'burbs (but we really are Philly-centric)
We will try to mix it up as far as bike-friendly, commuter-friendly and car-friendly destinations. Expect a few events every week!
Run by game designer, manga artist and event producer Alex Strang. I cannot make it out to every event, but I at least try to share as many cool things as I find!
