A whiskey lovers group devoted to all things whiskey! The idea of the group is to get like minded people together to share favorite whiskey bars, tour whiskey distilleries and enjoy the company of like minded whiskey enthusiasts.

The group isn't geared towards large party events because I want to promote a more intimate feel. Another issue with large events is that some great whiskey …

We're an autonomous collective of like-minded young (at heart) people who share a love of the arts and the creative process in general. I started this group because there are tons of us in this city, but for some reason, we all seem to be scattered or otherwise barred from connecting with one another in a meaningful way. So, I figured that even the littlest excuse can help bridge that gap. To read a makeshift manifesto for the group, click here: http://www.meetup.com/Twenty-Something-Artists-Wr …

I started this Kent Station Meet-up Group to meet new people closer to where I live. I have joined other meet-up groups and went to their events, all of which were positive experiences. However, most of these groups were at the East-side or further north, the people who attended were living mostly local to those areas. I would like to meet-up with local people closer to home, and the Kent Station area seems to have plenty to offer. Toughts are to meet-up for Happy Hours, dinners, movies or we ca …
