Anyone interested in joining a weekly board game group on Roosevelt Island?

I’m looking to start a board game group on Roosevelt Island and would love to know if there’s any interest as the location is semi remote in-comparison to the rest of the city. I have a ton of strategy and party style board games I’m willing to share. We could play at the Island House common room. I’m opened to any suggestions too!

Join Me For A Cigar At A Cigar Lounge At Approx. 9 PM Tonight?

Hey there.

I enjoy the occasional cigar and definitely like the vibe of old-school cigar lounges in the city.

I am 33 M and enjoy travel, business, and meeting people who are doing interesting things and have interesting perspectives.

If a cigar near Midtown (or could instead go to a spot in the village if more convenient) sounds like your kind of chill, feel free to send me a chat.

Breakneck ridge hike tomorrow

Hey there, I hiked last week and caught some autumn leaves and think this is the last weekend to take it all in before the leaves fall.

Thinking if we get up high like on breakneck ridge, we could get a good view of the surrounding area and see autumn leaves.

Down to meet at Grand Central Station tomorrow at 9:45 am and catch the express train. We can pack lunches and enjoy it out on the trail!

I’m late 20s M and used to hike every weekend when I lived in other cities but since I moved to the city my hiking is a hobby I’d love to get back into. Ideally you have some hiking experience as breakneck ridge has some rock scrambling, so please have running shoes or hiking shoes and a backpack that can hold 1.5-2 liters of water.

More about me: I like museums, absurd humor, and baking. Into entrepreneurial stuff but not annoying about it. Love meeting new friends and get along the best with people that like to be silly or sarcastic. Cheers!

11/6 Bollywood Karaoke Night

Usually a spot will have 1 or 2 Bollywood songs in their songbook. Or a small private room may luckily allow YouTube stuff. But rarely is a large room filled friends and soon to be new friends who would magically join in on a song, like most places, until now.

I decided i'll host a Bollywood Karaoke night. The venue will allow for songs off Youtube. It even has a mini stage, ready for you to take the limelight.

Let your Desi peeps know and I hope to see you there.

11/3 (Sunday), 3pm - I have an extra ticket for Cirque Kalabante: Afrique En Cirque @Kupferberg Center For the Arts in Queens

Edit: I haven't heard back from the one commenter so this is still open-

Hey all,

I have an extra ticket to Cirque Kalabante in Queens tomorrow at 3pm. Would love to find someone interested in going.

I'm 54M, 5'6", half Asian and a little isolated/don't get out much since Covid. Really just looking to meet someone new and enjoy a show. I'll be coming from Brooklyn and looking to meet there around 2:30 at the latest. Happy to meet somewhere a little earlier if you want to.

I'll likely hang out a bit and explore the area afterwards, but you're not obligated to join that of course. And that's not definite.

I'm pretty well traveled and pretty well read. Up on most current events. Hobbies are riding my (Vespa type) scooter, cooking, traveling, and recently, 'money management'. My trivia categories are: Science, science fiction, current events, 'the 80s', food/culinary and anything Russian.

That's about it for now, any questions or whatever, let me know.

(Ticket is my treat if that needs to be said)

11/3 NYC Marathon

Looking for people to come with me to cheer on the runners. I'm going to be making a funny sign to hold up and you should bring one too. I'm thinking Manhattan but we can talk things out and find a good spot that works for everyone. I'm running in 2025 so I'll think this would be a fun experience

Social Meetups at the MET starting 11/24

Hi, I'm a 39M longtime NYC resident. My wife and I live in UES and recently became members at the MET using the NYC resident program. I love art history and literature associated with art. Wanted to start this thread to see if there are any other folks who might be interested in meeting once a month at the MET to explore different galleries, MET expert talks, or just meet socially to grab drinks and chat about art history and associated literature. If you have any suggestions for groups that already do this, let me know! If not, hopefully, we can get something regular going that keeps it fun and light-hearted.

I'll be attending the MET talk at 2 pm on 11/24 for the current exhibition (Sienna: Rise of the Painting). And grab drinks after somewhere nearby. Registration is still open and free. Feel free to reply or DM if you're interested in joining!

Link: https://engage.metmuseum.org/events/education/talks/public-programs/grr/fy25/sunday-at-the-met-siena-the-rise-of-painting-1300-1350/

Edit: thrilled to see the level of interest! If you've been able to register for the Sunday 11/24 event, let's plan to meet inside the MET by the Temple of Dendur (right by the twin statues of Amenhotep III facing 5th Ave entrance) at 1:15 pm. I'll be wearing a black sweatshirt and a black NY cap. The talk will be in the Egyptian wing at the Grace Rainey Roger's Auditorium. Even for registered participants, space fills up, so it's not a bad idea to head over around 1:30 pm to the auditorium. For folks who can't register in time but would still like to meet up, we can grab a bite afterward at The American Wing cafe inside the MET at 4 pm. Your NY resident proof (library card, driver's license, or any other state ID) can give you pay what you wish access to the MET for the afternoon. Will add you to a whatsapp group in person to coordinate future events after we meet up!

Find your community-- People Who Thrive on 11/20

The first meeting of People Who Thrive in October was a real success, so I want to hype up our November gathering!

At every People Who Thrive event, a speaker talks for 10 minutes about a time in their life or their career when they asked for help, and receiving that help had a transformative impact.  Then, everyone has one minute to address the group and share their elevator pitch, an "ask" (something they need help with), and an "offer" (a way they can be of service to others).  When the floor is open for 1:1 conversations, it's easy to walk right up to someone you can help, someone who can help you, someone who is working on something inspiring, or someone who you might want to be friends with.

When: Wednesday, 11/20
Where: Fabrik, 12-16 Vestry Street, 4th floor

Register: link in comments

You can learn more about People Who Thrive and see photos from the first event last month here. The idea behind the event is that we have this notion that very successful people became that way because they put their heads down and put in the hours as they pursued their goals.  But most truly successful people share that they had a lot of support.  New York City is a vast and diverse city full of go-getters, but pretty much everyone is looking for the same thing: a community.
