This is a group for women in their 30s who feel they are going through major transitions in life, i.e., career, family, new home, friendships/relationships, spirituality, etc. As a woman in my 30's, I definitely experienced this transition and I am still going through it now. It seems that the 30's is such an important stage in life when you are redefining yourself, establishing yourself and asserting who you are as an adult in the world. My purpose in creating this group is to create a space fo …

Following the theatre improv principles of "Yes, and...", non-judgment, and deep listening/participation, we have FUN with sound and music, made from instruments and our own bodies. This is like an adult PLAY group using music. So what does this have to do with CREATIVITY, TECHNOLOGY, INNOVATION, ENTREPRENEURSHIP, COLLABORATION, and KNOWLEDGE SHARING?

The concept is post day trips, outings, movies, public events, not just one type. Thinking a train trip to Old Sacramento, the ferry to the city, ice skating at Embacadero. Walnut Creek. throw in a lunch or dinner, maybe drinks, dancing. Open to suggestions, or recommendations for people new to the area to see or do. Maybe you would …

Well, let’s just dip our toe shoes into the water, here, and see if there’s any balletomania afoot, for a new meetup now. Amid the epoch of “Black Swan" at the movies, and with the Giants having won the World Series (yes, whipping through 32 fouetté turns is almost as hard as hitting a Lincecum fastball), and now the first book ever published about the entire history of ballet (“Apollo’s Angels,” by Jennifer Homans), and, ta-dah, most important of all, with the world-class San Francisco Ballet …

We are connecting the dots by telling stories: about life we are living, about travel we took last winter, about last movie we saw, about premonition over last night's dream, and about food. Sharing stories over food is a tradition, something we all have done since we were able to recognize lights and sounds. Taken from a dictionary, the definition of "Food" is, a noun: "any nourishing substance that is eaten, drunk, or otherwise taken into the body to sustain life, provide energy, promote grow …

This is a group for contemporary artists in the Silicon Valley area who desire to meet other artists for the sake of fostering artistic community. Silicon Valley is a tough area to work in as a contemporary artist. With the exception of a few galleries and museums, and some small collegial art programs, meeting other artists so as not to be creating is a vacuum is difficult at best. Engaging with other artists is key to sustaining an art practice, both for the purposes of moral support, getting …
