why we gather/what we ask
we believe it takes effort, intentionality, and presence to make real connections, encounter strangers, share rituals, and build community.
we are built for connection. for family, for friendship, for community.
yet the modern world pulls us apart, convincing us that life is best lived in isolation.
we believe in another way, where life expands as it is shared, and meaning grows when reflected around a table.
so we gather.
in the rhythm of ritual and the simplicity of presence, we find strength. we weave back what has frayed.
not because it is easy, but because gathering is sacred. Making this work means co-creating a space designed for openness, connection, and just a little bit of courage.
here’s what we ask of every guest:
come open. arrive curious, kind, and willing to meet someone new.
connect 1:1. our gatherings aren’t about mingling, flirting, or networking. they’re about meaningful individual connection.
be present. put your phone away. the people here are the point.
honor your commitment. show up on time. stay the full time. your presence matters.
take risks. Share something real. go a little deeper than usual.
be authentic; no performance required. this isn’t about being interesting, impressive, or “on.” You’re not here to sell yourself, you’re here to be yourself.
be generous. if you feel a thread forming, don’t be afraid to keep pulling it. offer to reconnect, trade contact info, or make an introduction.
pick a night. take a seat. come play.
95% of our guests say they will come back, and then they do. Join us soon and see why.
circles and gatherings, thoughtfully matched to help you find your people.
Circles are for smaller groups with shared backgrounds or interests, and take place over dinner at amazing restaurants.
Gatherings are bigger, lively game nights, led by a professional guide, and feature a diverse group of kind, curious humans and deeper games (on the table, across the room).
