What is a Third Place?

Author Ray Oldenburg’s concept of a Third Place is spaces outside home or work/school, where you can meet new people outside your usual social circle. These places can include cafes, bars, churches, and gyms. We encourage regulars to make the space feel like their own, and for community members to help shape our vision moving forward.
