Q-MoB SPEED DATING EVENT
Saturday, January 18 4:30pm
Join queer men (18 & up) from all over the region in this intergenerational speed dating event where you will spend five minutes getting to know a man and then decide whether you want to let him know at the end of the evening via a speedmatch app that you want to get to know him for: 1) networking, 2) dating, 3) mentoring, 4) friendship, 5) or no connection. You'll repeat this process in brief interviews with as many of the men present as possible. After each conversation, you'll mark your preferences on the app, and you'll learn all your mutual matches by the end of the event & be able to email them or chat to schedule a followup meeting (if you want).

SMALL BATCH SALON: BOWLING ALONE w/ REV. MIKE DENTON
Wednesday, January 22 7pm
This month, we’ll be joined in conversation by Rev. Mike Denton of the South Congregational Church here in Pittsfield. We’ll be talking about the book Bowling Alone, and the necessity of (re)building resilient communities.
In celebration of this event, we’ll also be releasing a custom pale ale called “Bricolage.” Named for the art form of making new objects out of broken materials, we felt that this “scrap beer” made from leftover ingredients symbolizes the act of community building.
Proceeds from the sale of this beer will go to the Non-Profit Center of the Berkshires.
