Preserve Minneapolis is dedicated to improving the quality of life in Minneapolis by recognizing, preserving, and revitalizing the architectural and related cultural resources of the city of Minneapolis. We advocate, we explain, and we explore! On the odd months (think January, March, etc...) we host 'Happy Hour with a Preservationist', which are behind the scenes tours of hard to get into historic spaces. The cool thing is when we tour these places, many are undergoing or completing restoration …

I'm attempting to organize a small enclave of friendly gamers to play boardgames like Avalon Hill's Squad leader, Third Reich, KingMaker - or any other 'serious' military/historical game. The goal is to create a group of 5-12 people that enjoy gaming and military history who miss the camaraderie of getting together on a Saturday or Sunday to 'conqueror the world' - or at least a parcel of it!

Group description - interact with seasoned readers that think real life is more interesting than fiction: history, biographies, real life journalistic books, behavorial sciences, etc. 1st Wednesday of the month.

Kabbalah is a tradition whose roots extend back to the most remote history of the earth. Although considered a Judeo-Christian mysticism by many, it has been influenced by every golden age in the evolution of the western world. Throughout it's venerable life span the Kabbalah has remained adaptable to contemporary thought and compatible with western lifestyles, earning it the title of "The Ancient Yoga of the West".

Ever hear about the Art Salon of Paris in the 1800's and New York in the early 1900's. Our artist friends agree that we need a place today to gather, discuss the arts, show current work and reflect on past artist's work. It is an experiment, testing to see whether the topics that intrigue us have meaning and significance beyond a select few, and seeking to create a time/space within which we can stir a lively, rigorous discussion about the state of art - local, national and international - yours …

For anyone interested in discussing and reading great books on politics, technology, culture, and history, this is the club for you! If the meetup gains traction, we'll come up with a system for book selections. For the first month, though, I have gone ahead and picked out "Steve Jobs" by Walter Isaacson. Even if you haven't read the book of the month, feel free to show up and listen to what other people are saying about it.

You knew it was just a matter of time... This meetup started in the fall of 2007 to help organize the supporters of Ron Paul prior to the 2008 caucuses. In September 2008 hundreds of attendees of the Rally for the Republic met at Jäger until the early morning hours. Since then, Tuesday nights at Clubhouse Jäger have become somewhat of a tradition, with republicans, democrats, socialists, greens, independents and anarchists of all hyphenated adjectives getting together to discuss politics, econ …
