We are a group based in the DC Metro area that love craft beer and trying new things. Beer Snobs need not apply. We meet 2–3 times a month, the first Thursday of each month we meet at Meridian Pint in DC (starting January 2013) and the first Saturday a month we tour a local (or not too distant) brewery. We also have some outdoor activities such as hiking and biking followed by beer, bottle shares, beer dinners, and soon beer classes!

This group is for those who like to create using paper. Together we will create greeting cards, 3-D projects, scrapbooking pages, and other special projects. We will use this therapy to finish those projects that we've been meaning to finish, meet new friends, and have tons of fun.

Are you a crafter? Do you DIY almost everything you can rather than buy it in a store? Do you enjoy Upcycling projects? Do you want to learn new techniques? Maybe you need some help with an upcoming project? Or you want to meet friends and connect with new people? If you said yes to any of those questions this is the meetup group for you. No epic fails here, all skill levels welcomed. It wont all be business, there will be some major play involved too. Happy Hours etc.

Hi all, As a divorced baby boomer thinking about retirement I'm interested in finding an alternative to living alone or in a high-rise retirement building. An alternative that allows several women to live together and have separate 1-2 bedroomn apartments while also sharing some common space like kitchen, dining, deck, garden, craft/art studio space, etc. for enjoying each others company. The research I've done shows that co-housing communities tend to be expensive and they often have long w …
