We brought our group to Meetup.com in April 2010, but we actually began our monthly book discussions in September 2009.  We have been having our meetings the first Wednesday evening of every month, 7pm at Red Hook Coffee & Tea (765 S 4th St - between Fitzwater & Catharine in Queen Village). The meetings generally go no later than 9pm. We are casual and enthusiastic; our members enjoy reading and collectively choosing and discussing books on a monthly basis. We take turns selecting the books …

… Professionals can come in and lecture and the rest of the members can ask questions and participate in the discussion.

“I do not know the American gentleman, God forgive me for putting two such words together." -Charles Dickens What the young men of our generation need is an excuse to drink the way our grandfathers used to: frequently, dressed well, and over meaningful conversation. The purpose of this group is to start a group of gentlemen who are intelligent, driven, and appreciate meaningful discussion. That being said, we're not stuffy. Crass subjects, foul language, sarcasm and funny jokes made in poor tast …

Do you you have a love of maps and history? Are you interested in the environment through an historical lens? Often we are taught subjects as self-contained disciplines, but in reality there are many natural forces which effect an historical event, such as plagues, landforms, climate, wind and ocean currents. This group isn't about reciting dates or capitals--we explore people, places and events and the the way the natural world has affected history and vice versa. It's really amazing stuff! 

Attention poets and poetry lovers: We welcome you to express yourself and discover new inspiration every Wednesday night here at Tattoo Gallery Cafe @ Java Ink (7 to 10pm). Let's face it, there are not many places in the City where poetry "happens" on a regular basis. This group was started for that very reason: to build bridges where none were. We hope to at least revitalize poetry in our own community. This is a lofty goal, but with your help we are one step closer to achieving it. Whether you …
