What we’re about
SPARK is about sparking new ideas and, hopefully, sparking new friendships as well. We'll explore philosophy in a down-to-earth way. The Organizers will lead some of the discussions but there will be no lectures — it's all about group participation. Members are encouraged to present on topics that interest them.
We are an Equal Opportunity group and do not discriminate against anyone on the basis of race, sex, age, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity and/or expression, or disability.
It is the vision of the Organizers of Spark that our group will be primarily an IRL (In Real Life) group. We want to create a community of like-minded folks who are honestly interested in face-to-face interactions. To that end, we encourage our members to attend at least one event every six months. When we are planing events we need to know that the number of RSVPs is accurate so if you RSVP, please show up. We have a Facebook group but we only allow members to join it if they have attended at least one event. Also, if you use an alias, or if you cannot provide a recognizable head shot as your profile pic, you will not be allowed to join. We want to deal with honest individuals who do not seek to conceal their identities.
We are open to people of all philosophical, religious, and political points of view. If you're a life-long learner, this group is for you! See you soon!
