Meet others in the city over fun food. This edition is for songwriters seeking collaborators!About this EventHey songwriters!Our series groups together complete strangers for a fun night out. That's right, you sign up, and we book the restaurant. We know life can get busy. Don't forget to spend time making new friends! Why do city life alone when you can build your community with us. This project is to host dinners to combat loneliness while supporting locally owned businesses.Each outing, dinner is held at a different restaurant. These dinners are not directly associated with the restaurants, but are simply based on a table reservation via Opentable or Resy. The pin on the map is not the location but a placeholder on Eventbrite since each outing is somewhere different. Locations are discussed with registrants. Feel free to reach out prior to signing up to see about number of signups and proposed restaurant of the week for the date you have in mind.Our segment on Fox 11 Los Angeles.Please see here for our coverage in Nashville Fox 17's Growing Nashville segment.Lewiston, Maine NewsThis micro-event is intended to be for 4-6 people maximum. If the evening you signed up for does not hit the minimum number of signups, please be open to joining us on another night with a fuller group. Check out our feature in Eventbrite's 2025 TRNDS report about embracing the micro-event trend.How does it work?*After you register, you'll be emailed an introduction message including a quick questionnaire regarding age, hobbies, and interests. We utilize your answers to guide us to a reservation at the restaurant of the week!*Your registration does not include your individual food and drink purchases. A paid ticket simply makes you more committed to actually showing up. It also supports our team's work.*If you sign up the day of the gathering and do not get a welcoming message from us in time, simply email ermantourageimpact@gmail.com, request a refund, or please be open to joining us on another evening.Our vision is simple: we take the no gimmicks approach to networking. No need for yet another app to take up space on your phone - just four walls and a roof and good food for people to connect :) We coordinate with you directly, human-to-human.If you have any more questions, please contact ermantourageimpact@gmail.com!Brought to you by event series Ermantourage.(Become a monthly member via Patreon for community gatherings not listed on this calendar, giveaways, and for community chat rooms with local and global members!)Check out our newest endeavor TheComeunityProject.com.Testimonials:"It was so great! I will share pictures of food and if you need anywhere to share the experience! You did it better than AI! All of us were from different parts of the world, somehow having similar interests even though the age was different. Super cozy and friendly and amazing. We had one birthday (Persephone) so we gave her a cake!Thanks for hosting and looking forward to more events!" -Korina from Munich"Hey, just wanted to give an update months later.
