Looking to meet new friends and build community with people who have similar interests? Join one or more of our Young Adult Division (YAD) Collectives.
Contact Sarah Machlis at smachlis@associated.org or fill out our interest form and be invited to the next meet up.
A collective is a group of young adults (ages 22-39) who gather around a shared common interest. Join up and do something you love or explore something new.
Why should you join a collective? Because together, we collectively make our community a better place. Whether you are interested in being active, taking in local culture, or trying new foods, there is a YAD Collective for you.
Let your energy shine through. If you’re into team sports (think “Volo kickball”) or quieting your mind through yoga, this Collective is for you. Let out your competitive side, or enjoy getting active with other young adults.
Creative minds, rejoice! If you’re into admiring others’ art or making your own, this Arts and Culture Collective is for you. Each meet up, we will either partake in different crafting activities, or explore cultural spaces around Baltimore. From seeing a new installation at Jewish Museum of Maryland to learning how to do calligraphy, there is something for everyone.
There truly is nothing like a bunch of Jews sitting around the table with good food and good conversation. If you’re into trying new foods or new restaurants, or you’re looking for a different Shabbat dinner experience with your peers, this Food Collective is for you. Connect with fellow foodies to share recommendations, explore new restaurants around Baltimore and try something new.
