Avengers’ Saturday Cafe for the Homeless
Avengers’ Saturday Cafe for the Homeless
Note: You may be removed from the attendance list if you've participated in the previous week's event. This allows for more people to experience this Meetup. Avengers put your costumes on and let’s go and save the world!
Well we can’t save the world (yet), but we aim to try to play a small part in the lives of those experiencing homelessness by making their day a bit better!
Description: Before the event the organizer will post a list in the comment section of the attendees and what they are responsible to bring (food/drink, kitchen supplies, cleaning supplies). We normally ask each attending member to bring approximately $15-20 worth of ingredients/supplies to our event. We will use the items to prepare and serve food/drink at The Meeting Place.
Timeline: We will meet on location at 11:00 am, with lunch served between 12:30-1:00 pm.
Membership Dues: Membership dues are $2.00 for the calendar year. Membership dues go towards paying for food/supplies incurred by no-shows. Membership dues are due at the first meetup of the year that you attend.
No Shows/Late Un-RSVP: We’re relying on members who RSVP to bring key ingredients for recipes! Please try your best to show-up or alternatively change your RSVP early so another member may fill the empty spot.
\*\*\* If you are on the waitlist, keep checking as you may be moved into attendance to replace someone. We will try to message you to confirm your attendance in advance.
Donations will be assigned before the event.

Mob Programming at Mofer Coffee
Mob Programming at Mofer Coffee
Let’s do some coding together at a cafe! No more working alone in the weekend. Here, we write code together. And I mean together together. Not occupying-the-same-space-but-separate together. Here’s how it works: Jennifer brings her mobile app project, tells everyone that it is like Pinterest for recipes and she’d like to work on the nav bar. Paul and Chloe think Jennifer's project is fascinating, and they join the group. They gather around Jennifer’s laptop and work on the nav bar for 2 hours. Jennifer is the one typing out the code while Paul and Chloe research, brainstorm, and offer suggestions. If you’re feeling stuck on your own project or need a motivation boost, bring it to mob programming! Want to learn by watching how others code and solve problems? Join someone else’s project at this event! Oh and we love your half-done projects that you are a bit embarrassed to share. Absolutely bring those to the event! **Discord**: We use Discord to share screen & code snippets during the event. Also feel free to share your projects here before the event! https://discord.gg/xwjDdVSw3E **Event policy**: * We have 0 tolerance for harassment. * We don’t allow the projects that are not meant to be shared in public such as school assignments, interview tasks, or trade secrets. * The goal is to write code. We discourage you from pitching business ideas here, doing code reviews, or spending the whole event on planning what to do. * Please buy a drink, and tip the barista well.

Social Mixer
Social Mixer
YOU MUST RSVP HERE! We have limited free tickets! Then prices go up! https://socialmixtureapril.eventbrite.com Looking for something different to do on a Saturday night in Toronto? Social Creatures is back with another Social Mixer at Crystal Thani on College Street on Saturday April 25. If you enjoy meeting new people, playing interactive social games, and stepping into something a little outside your usual routine, this night is designed for you. This is not a normal meetup where people are left to figure things out on their own. There is a host guiding the entire room, running structured activities, using materials, and shaping how people move and connect throughout the night. It removes the awkward guessing and creates a flow where meeting people feels natural. Whether you are more introverted, highly social, or somewhere in between, the environment is built to make connection easier. The activities are designed so conversations happen without forcing anything, and people end up meeting others they normally would not cross paths with. Toronto can often feel like people stay within their own circles. This mixer is about breaking that pattern. Most people arrive not knowing anyone in the room. As the night goes on, strangers become familiar faces and the energy of the space starts to shift into something more connected and alive. We are also introducing new activities and social challenges for this event, designed to get people moving, laughing, and interacting with different people throughout the night. It is encouraged to come on your own. People who arrive solo usually engage more fully, meet more people, and experience the event in a more open way. Social Creatures was recently featured in a BlogTO article, highlighting how these events are helping people in Toronto meet new friends and reconnect with the social side of the city. If you are open to new experiences, meeting interesting people, and being part of something positive in the city, you will feel at home here. Event Details Date: Saturday , April 25 Time: 8:00 PM to 11:00 PM Location: Crystal Thani Address: 571 College St, Toronto ⸻ Arrive Early Arriving early gives you the full experience. The first activities begin shortly after the event starts, and early arrival makes it easier to meet everyone and settle into the flow of the night. ⸻ What to Expect Engaging social games and guided group activities. New interactive challenges introduced for this event. A welcoming and energetic atmosphere inside Crystal Thani. Food and drinks available through the venue. Opportunities to meet new people and expand your social circle. Photos and videos may be taken during the event for Social Creatures content. ⸻ Who Should Come Anyone looking to meet new people and be part of a positive social experience. People new to the city or looking to expand their circle. The usual crowd ranges from 19 to 40, though all ages are welcome. This is not a dating event. The focus is social connection, respect, and openness to meeting everyone in the room. ⸻ Dress Code Come as you are. Casual, comfortable, and expressive. Everyone attending is expected to treat others respectfully and contribute to a welcoming environment. ⸻ About Social Creatures Social Creatures started with a simple idea. Toronto needed more spaces where people could gather, play games, and meet others without it feeling forced. What began as small gatherings between friends has grown into a community where people come together to socialize, try new activities, and create memorable moments in the city. ⸻ Venue Tips Support the venue by purchasing at least one drink or food item. Be mindful of others and help keep the environment positive for everyone. ⸻ Common Questions Can I come alone? Yes. Most people attend solo, and it is encouraged because it creates a more open and connected environment. Do I need experience with the games? No experience is needed. Everything is beginner friendly and guided by the host. Is this a dating event? No. The focus is social connection and meeting new people. What should I bring? Bring yourself and a positive mindset. You may also want money for food or drink. Can I leave early? Yes, though staying for the full event helps you experience everything. ⸻ Stay Connected Instagram: @SocialCreaturesEvents TikTok: @SocialCreaturesEvents Follow Social Creatures on Eventbrite for future events and updates. Your next Saturday night in Toronto can feel different. Come see what unfolds.
