Meetup : Washington, D.C.: Mini Talks + Socializing

Discussion article for the meetup : Washington, D.C.: Mini Talks + Socializing

WHEN: 28 December 2014 03:00:00PM (-0500)

WHERE: National Portrait Gallery

We will, in fact, be meeting on December 28th. As usual, it will be in the Kogod Courtyard of the National Portrait Gallery (8th and F Sts or 8th and G Sts NW, go straight past the information desk from either entrance), and the purported topic will be part short (~10-20 min) lectures on random topics and part hanging out and catching up with friends. As usual, we will congregate between 3:00 and 3:30; Mini Talks, if they happen, will run from around 3:30 until around 5:15 or when we run out of volunteers, whichever comes first; the remainder of the meetup will be free for people to spend as they please.

As always, if you need to show up late or leave early, that’s completely fine, and if you have any requests, criticisms, concerns, or other comments you want to share with us, we’ll be happy to hear from you. We know the holidays are a busy time for most people—this is meant to be a pleasant, low-key, stress-free meetup for anyone who would like to attend.

On the Metro, the Orange Line is scheduled to run every 16 minutes instead of every 12 minutes; otherwise, trains should be running on the regular weekend schedule.

Upcoming meetups:

  • Jan. 4: Meta Meetup (discuss Less Wrong DC: what you like, what you want, what you’d change, &c.)

  • Jan. 11: TBA (to be summarized)

  • Jan. 18: Fun & Games (bring games, play games, converse, socialize, or any combination thereof)
