Phone Free Social Meetup to Build Community Connections

Link up. Unplug. Tap in.

Remember what it felt like to have a real conversation?

No phones.

No distractions.

Just genuine interest and connection.

84% of people admit to being addicted to their phones, and the Offline Collective Columbus is here to combat that digital burnout.

Join us for the Offline Collective Columbus monthly meetup. A phone-free social club bringing joy back to face-to-face interactions.

What to expect:

• Cultivated Connection: A curated mingling experience designed to help attendees reach common ground through fun icebreakers, collaborative games, and empowered conversations.

• Phone-Free Zone: Upon arrival, your phone will be placed in a phone locker (visible through a window but inaccessible). In case of emergency, simply notify staff and you'll have immediate access. We'll have a designated photographer capturing moments that will be emailed to attendees.

• Community building: Connect with Columbus locals who want to build friendships that don't start with "what's your Instagram"?

• Craft food and drinks: Enjoy great brews and crafted cocktails from Honest Friend Brewing, along with good food from Red Rabbit Ramen. All food and drinks will be available for purchase

Ready to disconnect to reconnect? Spots are limited! RSVP to join Columbus' newest social movement. Your future coffee buddy, business partner, or best friend might be in the room. See you there!
