Feeling stressed or alone? Want the cozy "ahh, my people" feel of a convention without the chaos? Let's all get out more often! Join a bunch of your fellow geeks in our Sanctuary.

These meetups are casual hangouts for members of our community to feel safe and among friends in an increasingly uncertain world. Whether you're a social butterfly or an introvert, we want you to feel comfortable here. Bring games, puzzles, treats, crafts, your favorite book - whatever activity you'd like to engage in in the company of your local geek community. Meet new people, reconnect with friends, or just enjoy the atmosphere.

Sunday hangouts will be held roughly every four weeks at FOK Studios on Harriet Island in St Paul. See the photo post on this event for detailed directions to the space.

House Rules:

- This is a chill space, intended for us to relax together. Activism is critical and we fully support that, but this is not the place to organize. You may bring flyers or literature to leave out for people to take.
- These are inclusive events, welcoming to all genders, abilities, and identities. We do NOT tolerate intolerance. Bigotry and disrespect are not welcome here.
- You are responsible for your own behavior. If you are bothering people, you may be asked to leave.
- We can’t make everyone happy. We can only do our best.

----------
NOTE: These meetups are not official Twin Cities Geek events and are not the responsibility of TCG staff or mods.

Kudos to Mira Cox for the original idea, and Wendy Smith for a great space to host it.
