Hey guys

Nick Parcaro and I are meeting up in the village on Tuesday October 2 at 8 pm to discus blender and the upcoming blender conference in NY. We thought it would be a great idea if any other blenderheads in the area would like to join us for dinner to talk about 3d related stuff, no general plan, just to hang out and talk about stuff (ive never met nick in real life btw)

so anyways if anyone would like to join us, just post here and ill pm you cell phone information so that we can get in contact with each other

Whole Foods Market
95 East Houston Street

#3

But this dinner meeting is just to eat dinner and chat with fellow enthusiasts and such

BTW, the conf. is scheduled for Saturday-Sunday

#4

any who, the address can be found on the first post of this thread

#5

#6

what a cool idea, I should get together with p00f and do something like this here in hawaii.

Wish I could make it,I have always wanted to see NYC :slight_smile:

#7

lol your welcome to come, and Hey its not like its that far (yea rite lol)

this idea basically came up so that we can meet fellow blenderheads and just talk, no particular reason thou

#8

there are other blenderers in ny??? i once tried to start a blender club at my school but nobody joined because nobody knew what it was and everybody is uncomfortable with joining a club they know nothing about. go figure. Unfortunatly what with exchange students and work, i don’t think i can come to any dinners. i had no idea, i seriously thought i was the only one. the blender conference in NY sounds hot (it would only be a couple stops away from me at max!)
which sat/sun?

Hello:
Would like to join you. I live on Long Island, but know the City fairly well. Maybe I can help you guys out.

#14

I could come but it is a 4 hour trip or so for me… chances are I won’t make it. I’ll be going to the conference though!

Its great that you can join us, the location and the time has been specified up on the first post, i just don’t see what you can help us out with?? this is just a friendly meeting to discus blender and such things that interest us. and also to discus the upcoming conference.

Hey Fellas, I just saw this and I am very interested in meeting fellow blender users in the NY/NJ area. I have a decent size photography studio in Central NJ if you guys would like to hold another event… I can make the space available. The buses stop directly in front of my shop from port authority. Let me know.
