You’re young, black, perhaps you’ve moved to a new city where you barely know anyone. Perhaps, you – like so many of us – have grown tired of the often immature cyclical club scene and the stuffy networking mixers. You just want to eat, drink and be merry with like minds in a safe and welcoming atmosphere. Before you even think it, don’t worry – you’re not asking for too much.
I was growing weary of attending the same old events, looking for genuine connection where there were only business cards, fake smiles and sideways glances at every person who walked through the door. No one seemed interested in genuine conversation, only What can we do for each other? I decided to sit out social events indefinitely, until something that better fit my lifestyle came along.
I had heard great things of Our Family Dinner and was pleasantly surprised that the experience was everything I had anticipated and more. Click through to learn more about Our Family Dinner and two other awesome events you’ll want to tell your friends about this year!
