"Show & Tell" for Grown-Ups In-Person
Got a hobby you love? A quirky collection? A passion you can talk about for days? Bring it to our adult show‑and‑tell night!
You’ll get 5–10 minutes to share anything you’re excited about—no pressure, no slides needed, just good vibes and curious neighbors. Maybe it’s a 'special interest' such as model trains, dress-making, birding, fiber arts, an overlooked style of music, fountain pens, plant cuttings, dinosaur facts, geocaching, the Titanic, Legos, wildlife rehabbing, afrofuturism, table-top gaming, British comedy, foraging, your poetry or art, or something else delightfully unexpected!
As long as it sparks joy, it's perfect! No registration is required. Just show up! But if you'd prefer, you can reserve a time slot for sharing, using this form!
Physical objects are helpful but not required. We will also provide a laptop and projector if you'd rather bring a slide deck on USB stick detailing your passion!
Prefer to just listen and support others? That’s great, too! Come discover what your community geeks out about!
Free, fun, and open to all adults.
