Magic Tuesday Gathering
This event offers a friendly gathering centered on community and discussion, with the main focus on playing Magic: The Gathering.
Death Cafe
Death Cafe offers a welcoming setting for open conversation about death, grief, and dying. Participants can share personal reflections, ask questions, take part in thoughtful dialogue, or simply listen. All are welcome, and you may come exactly as you are. Sessions take place twice each month, creating consistent opportunities to connect with others and talk openly about end-of-life topics without a set agenda.
MAMB Tuesday Night Gravel
MAMB leads a friendly gravel ride that gathers at the Nicollet Bike parking lot and rolls out after the A and B groups. Expect a blend of gravel and pavement with a touch of easy trail. It is a no-drop ride, so riders stay together. The pace typically runs about 12 to 14 mph over roughly 20 miles. The route is decided at the start to match the weather and the abilities of the group. Gravel bikes, mountain bikes, and other setups are welcome, including road bikes with wider tires.
Nicollet Bike and SkiBoard Game Nights
Adults who enjoy modern board games can connect with fellow players at a relaxed tabletop gathering. Attendees may bring a game to share or simply show up ready to play.
