Groups generally meet during business hours (9-7 Monday thru Friday) or immediately after. 7 or 7:30 PM meetings are fine as long as a representative is arrives before closing.

Book Groups
Science Fiction Book Group [ON HIATUS]

We choose a different book each month, sometimes a classic, but usually a newer title, and meet to discuss it. We welcome fans with years of reading experience or new readers interested in the genre. This is a casual, friendly group that always finds something to talk about and is always interested in learning about new authors and books. Contact John if you’re interested in participating.

Joy of Writing Group [MEETING ON ZOOM]
Every 2nd and 4th Thursday of the month, 6:00 pm
“We are a working writer’s group all writing in similar genres: fantasy, sci-fi, and paranormal in various combinations with a little mystery and poetry thrown in for variety. Our critique of one another’s writing is kind and honest. Most of our members are published authors or in the process of becoming published which gives us a great support system as we navigate the writing and publishing worlds. ”

Death Cafe Kalamazoo [ON HIATUS]
4th Wednesday of each month, 6pm
At a Death Cafe, people, often strangers, gather to drink tea and discuss death. Their objective is ‘to increase awareness of death with a view to helping people make the most of their (finite) lives’.
A Death Cafe is a group directed discussion of death with no agenda, objectives or themes. It is a discussion group rather than a grief support or counseling session.
Michigan Typochondriacs [ON HIATUS]
2nd Saturday of each month, 11am
A monthly meet-up with typewriter enthusiasts. Check out their Facebook page.
