Welcome, Columbus Cultural Explorers!

You delight in scintillating, intelligent conversation. You enjoy art, classical music and sophisticated jazz. You enjoy watching B&W movies from the 30s and 40s, especially Film Noir. You know who Lana Turner, William Powell, Greta Garbo, Myrna Loy, Peter Lorre, and John Garfield are.

You enjoy a good foreign film. You read Victorian novels.

You go to the symphony once in a while, and you know who the major composers are. You like world music too! You have recordings of artists from Brazil, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, Africa, or Asia.

You love dressing up for parties, dinners, or events, and you like vintage styles and clothing. You like to go to the Gallery Hop and art museums.

If you find yourself uninspired by much of modern American culture, this is the group for you!

Group activities may include seeing foreign and classic films, visiting ethnic restaurants, attending the symphony or ballet.

The emphasis will be most of all on friendship. Don't rely on the group to bring you out of your shell if shy. Get involved! If you join, write a short profile and post a photo! That is expected. This is a social networking site, so use it!
