Announcing the quarterly meeting of the Honolulu Fountain Pen Club. As usual we'll meet just outside of the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf in the Mānoa Marketplace, at Noon on 20 April 2024. As usual, look for people with lots of pens, and ink-stained fingers. There is no membership fee. You might want to bring a fold-up chair in case we have many people show up. We usually do a round robin of new acquisitions (highlighting a pen or two... or paper or the like). You can get a tea of coffee at Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. We usually head home after two hours at most. Locals and visitors alike are welcome. If you live on a neighbor island and want to attend over Zoom, please contact @HDoug as he operates our Zoom team.

untilDear FPNers, For a while, we have wanted to meet with fellow pen enthusiasts here, in the Netherlands. With lockdown restrictions now relaxed and with the summer opening up, it seems the right moment to get started. To this end, we are organizing the Netherlands Pen Club – and we invite you to join us! We thought about this idea for a while, also trying to learn from valiant earlier efforts in this sense that we saw discussed on FPN, and envisioned a long-term pen club. We want to meet, discuss, and share ideas about fountain pens and share the fountain pens themselves, sometimes in real life and sometimes digitally. Later, we want to engage the entire ecosystem around fountain pens in the Netherlands, including sellers, tuners, artists, etc. We want to also make contact with other pen clubs and people abroad for cross-fertilization. We aim to make it easy to do all these things, but this being the beginning it would be great if you could also share your ideas about what the Netherlands Pen Club can do for you and with your help. Concretely, we have two activities to offer: 1/ We are organizing a first meeting in the real world, in Utrecht, on Monday, June 6 (2e Pinksterdag), from 13:30-17:30. As an exciting first meetup, there will be at least 20 pens to try out and we invite everyone to share theirs. We have reserved time for conversation and community build-up. We have a format for all this, so it will be easy and not at all overwhelming. Everyone’s welcome! (Exact location TBD) Please let us know until Wednesday, May 25, if you will attend our first meetup – then, we can arrange a suitably sized place – and if you have any dietary restrictions – then, we can arrange snacks and beverages. Please also let us know if you need any other kind of assistance. (We will of course keep these details private.) PM us or reply here and we will contact you immediately about details. 2/ We have organized an online presence, on Discord, which allows meeting each other live and also to organize live events with higher frequency but without traveling hassles – PM us to get an invitation and join this platform. TL;DR: Fellow pen enthusiasts in the Netherlands, we are looking forward to meeting with you! PM us to get in touch. Signed, @DvdRiet, @Nikolaos, and @OldTravelingShoe

Ann Arbor(Michigan) Pen Posse Meeting On April 5Th, 2014........
Wolverine1 posted a topic in Clubs, Meetings and Events
Dear FPN Friends, The Ann Arbor Pen Posse will be meeting on April 5th, 2014. We will meet at the Sweetwaters Cafe, located at 3393 Plymouth Road, Ann Arbor-48105. We have decided to meet at this place because, given that we are meeting in Ann Arbor, there is plenty of free parking available, and the cafe itself has a lot of space, that will allow us, even with a large turnout, to be comfortable. Plus, it is located ear a restaurant, if we want to get some food. Unfortunately, one of the person who was our host, Thomas wont be there, since he has moved abroad due to work reasons, and we will miss him. I will post details, like a map to the cafe, etc in the next hour. Anyone have any questions can send me a PM via the FPN message system, or can send me a email to: sidss1@gmail.com Hope to see you all at the A2 Pen Posse meeting!!!!! - Sid
