What are Local Groups?

A Local Group is a group of people who, like you, are passionate about design. Local Groups organize meetings to get inspired, have fun and learn from one another.

Meetup Details

How to participate

​Unlike some of our other online meet ups, this one will take place on Discord. (If you haven’t used Discord before, it’s a little bit similar to Slack. It's more social than professional.)

  • If you already have a Discord account, you're good to go.

  • If you don't, then you will be prompted to create one. The process should take a few minutes.

  • ​You can use either a web browser or the optional Discord app.

​​About the event

​​This meetup has no agenda, no particular theme. The schedule is also open-ended. Your host will be online for the two-hour period, but you can come and go as you please.

​Maybe think of it as a coffee shop!

  • ​Anyone is welcome to attend: professionals, students, or just the UX–curious. You don’t even need to live near Minneapolis.

  • No need to prepare, but participants may be invited to introduce themselves, and/or talk about their interest in UX or their experiences with it. (But no one will be pressured to actively participate if observing is more your jam.)

​A few additional notes

  • ​Your host is an experienced facilitator — yet still imperfect. 🙂

  • Your host will emphasize making everyone feel welcome.

  • If you require any accessibility accommodations, let the host know!

  • Camera use is encouraged, but totally optional.

  • You can also choose to communicate via chat if you'd rather not talk.

Meetup attendees

Members can show their interest to attend a meetup by clicking “Attend this meetup” button. In addition, since Local Groups events are open to all, non-members can also attend these meetups.

Members might be bringing their non-member friends to a Local Group meetup (and you’re welcome to do the same), but their non-member friends will not be shown as “attending” because this feature is only available to members.

P.S.: Note that the number of attendees is not an indication of its value! Small meetups work perfectly, and can facilitate deeper, more fruitful conversations.
