This program begins at 7 PM EST.

Millions of Americans wish they had more friends and closer friendships, but they often overlook a treasure trove of potential friends — all the people who already live near them on their block or in their neighborhood! Join us for a special author talk with Kat Vellos, author of We Should Get Together: The Secret to Cultivating Better Friendships. Kat will share insights from her book that will motivate and inspire you. You’ll walk away with practical actions you can start using right away to make new friends and strengthen existing friendships, including right in your neighborhood. At the end of Kat’s presentation, there’ll be time for Q&A so come with your questions — Kat is excited to meet you and to support your journey of creating more fulfilling friendships and community in your life.

Registration is required.
