Name: Let's explore the SoWa Winter Festival!
Start: 2024-12-21T20:00:00.000Z
End: 2024-12-22T00:00:00.000Z
Location: SoWa Winter Festival

Join the **Metro West Local Hangout Crew (20-30s)** for an evening of socializing online! We'll be looking to play a round of icebreakers, followed by member introductions. After this, depending on group size, we'll split up into a couple of groups and play some fun Jackbox games, Code names, Gartic Phone or other fun games (feel free to suggest any you like!)

I have put this as a 2 hour event - it might not take that long OR it might go longer depending on how the group goes. And if interested, let's plan for an offline hangout for another day!

Concerns: If you're concerned with anything either during or before the event etc., let me know in private and we can figure something out!

This is really for folks in the Metro west (of Massachusetts/Biston) area who're interested in hanging out offline! If you're not in the area, feel free to attend, but we may miss you in our offline gatherings!

Looking for a unique holiday activity that combines creativity, fun, a chance to create your own gift for someone or even a way to make and meet new friends? Join us at **"Art Signals Studio" studio** for a BYOB crafting event where you can build your own Sea Glass keepsake! Whether you’re making a festive tree, a wreath, or an angel or a succulent, this is your chance to create a personalized keepsake or gift while socializing in a relaxed atmosphere.

**What to Expect:**

* **Guided Crafting:** An instructor will help you create your chosen item using provided sea glass and materials.
* **Festive Fun:** Add LED lighting to your creations to make them extra special!
* **Social Vibes:** Chat and connect with other attendees as you craft.

**How to Join:**

1. **RSVP [Here](https://bit.ly/seaglassdec14)** and submit a $15 deposit to reserve your spot. This deposit will apply toward your craft.
2. Browse the site for photos to see what kind of items you'd like to create and bring any ornaments you'd like to attach to your item of choice!

In order to keep accurate tracking of who's going and for the studio to ascertain how much materials they need while preventing no shows (as we've had quite a lot lately), the event is asking for 15$ to reserve your spot. This will be used to apply towards whichever item you'd like to make. Remember to do this as well as RSVP'ing on the link provided above as the studio might not have adequate materials for everyone who shows up if you don't register via the link. The studio will let us know how much the items cost - however, we are getting a 5$ discount courtesy of the owner for whichever item we pick. The total cost after discounts may end up being one of 30 or 60$ for the item you choose to build with the materials and instruction included.

**Address:**
16 Nason St., Maynard MA 01754

PS: I've already signed up but I'm not being sponsored for this in any shape or form. I just happen to love the holiday season and thought you all would like a festive little event like this! Looking forward to seeing y'all there!
