This Meetup Group Is For Everyone! Whether two, four or twenty attend...WE have fun, enjoy all types of events, entertainment and have made friends over 10 years of meetups. Remember...two are company and three is a party! So, if you are into attendance numbers & stats...move on. If you are into genuine, authentic and nice folks...that's us!**
Outside The Box Social Club - Detroit & Downriver Live! (formerly Detroit Live!) is an open-minded, open-hearted, diverse, inclusive social club that is dedicated to celebrating life and bringing all types of people together to share, learn, promote and respect the many genres of local music, art, culture and entertainment in and around the metro-Detroit area. All are welcome! LGBTQIA+ friendly.
Our purpose is to be inclusive and provide members with an opportunity to socialize & create diverse friendships in a friendly, authentic and respectful social environment... all while experiencing the adventure of a wide variety of music, dining, theatre, festivals and other live events.
We will tend to promote events that are cost friendly, however, we may splurge once in awhile to experience a special event. Group Participation and Guest Facilitators are welcome. Please message with an event idea you might like to host or post for the group.
We look forward to seeing you and becoming part of the Outside The Box Social Club!
Remember--All are welcome! Note--Superficiality, rudeness and disrespect are not welcome.
ATTENDANCE POLICY
Time & money goes into planning events. Organizers and members come out in good faith that people that RSVP will show up. So, in fairness to all members --it is time to implement the following attendance policy:
Event RSVP's & cancellations should be done within 6 hours of the event, unless there is an unforeseen circumstance. Just shoot a message to me. If a “no-show”, which means seating will not be reserved, etc. even if you show up. If you are a no-show for 3 events, with no message, etc. your membership will be revoked.
If you have questions or concerns, please contact me. Your input & involvement is appreciated. The group wouldn’t be possible without our attendees. Thanks!
