Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Email Projectalwaysreceiving@gmail.com, or send an inquiry through the general volunteer form on the Volunteers page, to ask about the next event..

You can just show up.

What to expect

Past events ran as afternoon community gatherings, from noon to 3 pm or from noon to 7 pm, with giveaways, a health and wellness fair and an open mic night. Open mic performers signed up through a form. The page does not say whether events cost money or need registration.

Tips for your first visit

  • Check the events page before you go; no upcoming events were listed when we checked.
  • Open mic performers sign up through a linked form, so plan ahead if you want to perform.
  • Past venues have street addresses on the site, but no transit or parking details are given.

Newcomer welcome

Fine for newcomers, but you may need to speak up (3 out of 5). Why we say this: Events are public, and the Volunteers page welcomes volunteers of any background and offers a form and an email. No upcoming events were listed when checked and the last one was in August 2025, so the way in is currently a form or email..
