Poly Cocktails in NYC 5th Anniversary Celebration!

The latest announcement from OpenLoveNY:

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

** 5th Anniversary Poly Cocktails, Monday March 12th @ Affaire **

Can you believe it?! It's been five years since we started Poly Cocktails. Wow! What started as a small gathering of 10 friends and lovers has now grown to a mailing list of more than 1,000 people! Our goal was to celebrate polyamory and create much-needed community. We are very proud of what this community has accomplished in that time, the contributions from regular attendees of Poly Cocktails, and our affiliation with Open Love NY and the great work we’ve done together.

As thanks for all your support over the years, we plan to have a big celebration at the next Poly Cocktails on Monday, March 12th. We are still finalizing details, but trust us — you will not want to miss this one! Plan on bringing food to share, and we’ll have some special surprises in store.

We also want to encourage those who have stories about Poly Cocktails and how the event has impacted their lives and their relationships to contact us at [email protected]. We’d like to share some of your stories at the event as part of our celebration.

As always, come solo or bring your wife, husband, "others," girlfriends, boyfriends and theirs and meet like-minded people. If you identify as polyamorous, if you are in an open relationship, or if you want to learn more about this loving and progressive way of life, we invite you to come and get advice and support, have some drinks and laughs, and build our community. All are welcome... feel free to pass this on to those who might have a serious interest.

I really wish you guys were doing this when I was traveling to NYC regularly to spend time with my OSO...
 
Yeah, I stopped going down there about 5 years ago - we had gone to a poly gathering in Central Park for the big NYC poly group and found it didn't really fit with the sort of events that we were looking for. both of us were rather "poly and that's it" and it seemed like most of the others there very strongly embraced the "poly and..." philosophy - the "and ..." being pagan, GLBT, kink, whatever and the crowd wasn't very welcoming of two rather "business casual" folks....

Poly Cocktails NYC - Mon. 3/1/14

Hello all,
Obviously, I haven't updated this announcement thread in a while. Poly Cocktails takes place on the first Monday of every month and has been going strong. The information for the upcoming March event follows below.

Many people have contacted me personally for information on this group and Poly Cocktails. However, please know that I am not affiliated with Poly Cocktails nor Open Love NY in any official capacity - I simply post here whatever announcements they send to me in their emails.

To receive the organization's announcements directly, go here to visit their site: http://openloveny.com/. They have a presence on Facebook and Twitter, and make announcements on Google Groups as well.

BTW, their announcements always ask to bring food. Except for the holiday parties, I've never seen anyone do that at Poly Cocktails - but I haven't been to one in a long time. Personally, I would not eat homemade food brought to a public event by people I don't know, but that's just me. If you have any questions about what to bring, or anything else at all, you can contact the organizers via Facebook, Twitter, or directly to [email protected].

Okay, so here is the latest:

Poly Cocktails 8 Year Anniversary!
Monday, February 9th @ the Delancey


Happy happy Poly Cocktailsaversary!
That’s right, Poly Cocktails is turning eight this month! We hope you will join us for cocktails, community, and cake to celebrate Valentine's Day and eight wonderful years of Poly community.

For our eighth anniversary, we are very excited to have both the ground floor and the roof deck of the Delancey! We know things have been a little crowded lately, and while we certainly don’t mind getting a little cozy with all of you, we’d love to see you all out in force this month to celebrate our anniversary, so we got you a little more space!

And, for this extra special night, we thought we’d get a little footloose with our own well-loved DJ Friar Tuck! He’ll be spinning so we can dance all night on the ground floor, while the roof deck will be the usual chatting and snacks we always have (plus cake, of course!)

We'll be dressed in our Valentine's Day finest, and we hope you will be too!

*Who to bring/invite*
We attract a wide range of people who are in consensual open relationships. If you are curious about this lifestyle, or have questions about your current relationship, this is a great opportunity to meet like-minded people, many of whom are available for advice, support and just plain fun.

It's always on a Monday. It's pretty much impossible to get people to show up to regular meetings for any group in Manhattan on weekends, because so many folks who work here live outside the borough. Coming into the city on the weekend is harder than going to a party after work on a weeknight, on your way home.
