About this Event
Broad Ripple Neighborhood Meetup: The Longest Table
Come outside, touch grass, and hang out with your neighbors. 🌿For our October Broad Ripple Neighborhood Meetup, we’re taking things outside for a giant, picnic-style gathering in the gardens at the Indianapolis Art Center!
We’ll gather around one long community "table" for an easygoing evening of food, live music, drinks, and getting to know the people who call Broad Ripple home.
What to Expect
🧺 The Longest Table — Grab a seat at our community-style picnic table and meet someone new.
🍪 Bring Your Own Food — Pack dinner for yourself or bring something to share! Baked goods, snacks, takeout, homemade dishes—it’s completely up to you.
🪑 Bring a Chair or Blanket — We’ll have a limited number of tables and chairs available for guests, so we recommend bringing your own folding chair or picnic blanket as a backup. Find a spot in the gardens and make yourself comfortable!
🍺 Drinks Available — Broad Ripple Brewpub will have a beer and wine stand with drinks available for purchase. BRVA members receive one free beer!
🎶 Live Music — Enjoy live music from Joshua Bucy while we hang out in the gardens.
👨👩👧👦 Kid Friendly — Bring the whole family! This meetup is open to neighbors of all ages.
🌳 Meet Your Neighbors — Come solo, bring a friend, or bring the family. Meet other Broad Ripple residents, local business owners, and members of the BRVA Board.
📣 Hear What's Happening in Broad Ripple — We'll share a few quick BRVA updates and what's coming up around the village.
This is our chance to enjoy a beautiful fall evening outside before Indiana decides it's officially too cold. 🍁
This event is free and open to everyone. RSVP so we know you're coming!
