Yes, transplants. No, we not talking about hearts and kidneys. We are talking about open-minded, intelligent, outgoing people who have come to NW Arkansas from anywhere else. Started by a group of NW Arkansas newcomers, these friendly individuals are bringing 'transplants' together for no other reason than to get to know other people in NW Arkansas. No fundraising. No church groups. No bird watching. Since your arrival in NW Arkansas, you have probably been wondering… how do I meet new people li …

Get together in each other's home for good food, wine and conversation. Each month we will have a theme (ie: Italian/Mexican/Seafood/etc) and will be assigned a dish to bring. This will be an smaller more intimate group than many of the 30+ meet up groups. The host member will provide main dish in their home and rest of us will bring a side dish and wine. With 12 members, we each will only have responsibility of being the host in our home, one time a year.  It's great...please give it a try.

In this group we will require several things: ACTIVITY, passion, honesty, a desire for knowledge, tolerance, and completely bareing your soul. This group is not for the passive or the pew sitters. This group is starting because it is a chance to separate from the mainstream of "well, preacher said it, so it's good". There will be no "Leader" that offers a message each week. YOU will be the one bringing a message. Not every week but either as you learn something new or in rotation. This is a c …

Hi! We're a small group of mothers, and this group is for us, the moms! While we do have some kid-oriented meetups, we're not a typical playroup, and we like to keep our membership small so that we can all get to know each other.  As there are openings for new members, we will be looking for moms in the Fayetteville area that are available for daytime activities throughout the week.

Perhaps you are a Unitarian-Universalist (UU) looking for other UUs. Or maybe you are interested in "progressive religion," meaning religion not controlled by any particular dogma, and you would like to get to know others who share your interest. Or you may not like the word "religion" at all, but are interested in non-supernatural spirituality or in exploring the ultimate meanings and concerns of life. Unitarian-Universalism includes all of these perspectives. UU is a denomination where you can …

There is no intended age for the group but most activities will be perfect for toddlers and preschool children since the focus on art at this age is on the PROCESS NOT THE PRODUCT.   Most activites can be modified a bit for older children or younger children, so feel free to join if you have children a bit younger or older or bring siblings who fa …
