Meet new friends groups near Weston, MA

This group aims to explore the historic use, foraging, and processing of natural pigments around greater "New England". We hope to foster more land-based relationships with visual artists through the exploration of local materials for art making. This group is for everyone interested in foraging, processing, and using pigments from earth, minerals, and native plants. We welcome folks working with natural dyes and clays in ceramics, although this group will mainly focus on Pigments used in drawing materials, inks, and paint. Whether you're a seasoned artist, craftsperson, historian or just curious about natural pigments, come learn and create with us.

Are you new to Boston? Have you been here for a while but are looking for new friends? Are you looking for fun activities and new adventures? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you're in the right place. One week we may be doing a photo walk or attending a candlelight concert, while the next we may have a picnic or go to a beer garden/restaurant. Anything is possible and suggestions from members are welcome. While we may have some events in beer gardens or breweries, this is not a drinking/partying group. This group is primarily meant for people in their 20s, 30s and early 40s. I see a lot of people interested in outdoors activities. If you are interested, check out my other group: [Boston Outside (Boston, MA) | Meetup](https://www.meetup.com/boston-outside/)

Join our Facebook Group - [https://www.facebook.com/groups/makefriendsaftercollege/](https://www.facebook.com/groups/letsdofunthingsandhangout/) Discord Page - https://discord.gg/QE4WuwZuez Join our Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/mfac_boston/ As we all know, it can be pretty hard to actually meet and make new friends after leaving college and entering into the real world. While in other Meetup groups it's easy to meet fellow fun, young people, it can sometimes be hard to translate those one-time experiences into more long term social connections that exist outside of the Meetup environment. With that in mind, this group was started with the goal of meeting, connecting with, and actually be-friending, new people. Welcome!

I've been organizing this first general social Waltham Meetup group for 7 years now. It's grown through FB now also. Can't wait to meet you all 💕 A group for people in their 20's-30's-mid 40s within Waltham/Newton and surrounding areas to connect and get to know each other when we don't want to head into downtown Boston. Make new friends, explore the different restaurants/pubs in the area, join our book club events, our walking/hiking events in the summer and explore similar interests. The goal of the group is to hopefully make meaningful connections along the way and build some friendships. Or have a fun time out socializing in a world these days where we get less of that each time. So let's get to it and let's meet some new people today! Some FAQ’s about the group and details in general: A. A picture may be taken of our event by attending our Meetup event you consent to it being taken and posted only to our Meetup and private FB group. B. Member Photos: We require profile photos of yourself in order to be accepted into the group. This helps event organizers identify you and find you during events and be able to help you out should you need help finding the group. C. Fees from paid events: Keeping in mind that organizers have to pay for the organizer membership in order to keep the group running and make events these fees go to offset the current $380 membership. If at any moment, there's any extra we'll be putting it back into the events for the members. Fundraising for the group is always appreciated. It only goes to offsetting costs of paying for the organizer membership. I'm trying to also include events free of cost to provide affordable options for people. Help me keep it this way if you found value in any of the events you participated in 🩷 D. Refund Policy: 1\. Events with a fee of less than $5: Please note that the fee for this event is non-refundable, even if someone else takes your spot. This small fee helps the Meetup organizer cover the $380 membership cost and serves as a thank-you for their time and effort in organizing these events. It also helps ensure that those who RSVP are genuinely interested and committed to attending, reducing "no shows" and last-minute cancellations after reservations have been made. Thank you for understanding and supporting the group! 2\. Events with a fee greater than $5: These would usually involve ticketed events\. The general policy is if the Organizer/Host can get their money back\, you’ll get your money back \- if you timely canceled\. Once an event location has been paid\, however\, many times they won’t issue a refund\. If they don’t refund us\, we can’t refund you regardless of how far in advance you canceled\. That said\, sometimes a refund can be issued IF you cancel at least a week in advance AND someone takes your spot\. If you want to request a refund\, message the event host via Meetup to discuss\. Please note\, if you cancel the day before or the day of an event\, there are no refunds \- regardless of the reason and regardless if someone takes your spot\. E. No show policy: we understand things unexpected things happen, and plans can change. Organizers take time and effort out of their free time to plan these activities for everyone and plan around a certain number of people and it's disrespectful to them to be left waiting for people who aren't coming. They can also run into reservation issues with restaurants that have been kind enough to accommodate for us. That's why we politely ask everyone to change their RSVP to “no” if they can't make it or message the organizer ahead of time. We'll implement a 3-strike no-show rule before removing a member from the group. F. Event Organizers/Suggestions: This group is looking for event organizers and assistants, as well as suggestions or ideas for upcoming events. If you're interested in a position, even if temporary to try it out, or have ideas for upcoming events please feel free to reach out to the main organizer. E. Join us on FB: https://www.facebook.com/groups/walthamsocialya/ \~More events offered on our FB group please join us above if you're interested.\~

NESFA is one of the oldest SF clubs in the nation. The convention that NESFA runs, Boskone, is also one of the oldest in the country. The NESFA clubhouse is located at 504 Medford Street in Somerville. NESFA hosts a variety of events at the clubhouse in the course of a month. All events at the clubhouse are free to anyone. You don't have to be a member and you do not have to join. All you have to do is open the door and walk in. Game Days, Game Nights, Media Days, Book Discussion Group, the Annual Picnic, the Halloween party, the Bah Humbug game day, and the general Wednesday night gathering are all free to attend. Details for each will be posted in each event listing. Boskone runs in February, and it's one of the longest running SF conventions out there. Many famous authors attend each year, along with editors and publishers. There are discussion panels, nightly events, an art show, filkers, a dealer's room, and I personally run the game room. NESFA is also the parent organization of NEGC (New England Gaming Convention). Two have run thus far. Both were 1-day gaming cons. NESFA Press is the publishing wing of NESFA. NESFAns handle all aspects of the work, from the negotiations to the editing. You'll see NESFA set up at the Boston Book Festival as well. info@nesfa.org is the general email address for nesfa. You can also contact me at my email address. The web address is [www.nesfa.org](http://www.nesfa.org)   To get to the clubhouse, you can take the 80 bus (drops you off a block away in either direction), and the 89 bus (drops you off on Broadway. Cross Broadway and go past the lights. NESFA will be on your right). There is a small lot in the back for cars (first come, first served) and metered parking on the street. I look forward to seeing you at the various events and thank you for taking the time to check out NESFA.
