About us

HIIII future besties! 👋 💕

I just moved back to Albany after almost 20 years away… and like so many of us, I’ve realized how hard it can be to make friends as an adult. We don’t have dorms, classes, or built-in social circles anymore — SO I decided to create one myself.

Welcome to Grownup Girlies - based in Albany, New York — a community for women who want to build real friendships, try new things, and show up as their authentic selves.

This is a space where you can walk into an event alone… and leave with new friends. 💫

We’ll be hosting fun monthly meet-ups like:
🎨 Craft + paint nights in the park
🍷 Wine outings & dinner dates
🎥 Movie nights
🧺 Farmers market hangs
☕ Coffee walks & cozy weekend activities
✨ Seasonal adventures & themed events

Whether you’re new to the area, restarting your social circle, or you just want to meet amazing women and create memories — youuu areee welcome here. Come join us, be yourself, and let’s build a community together 🫶

YOU CAN SIT WITH US! Can’t wait to meet you! ❤️
If you can’t find an event planned, please feel free to plan some yourself too!!

Making Glittered Snowman Ornaments ✨⛄️

Making Glittered Snowman Ornaments ✨⛄️

Bard & Baker Boardgame Cafe, 501 Broadway, Troy, ny, US

Join us for a mandala painting class where we will paint a glittered snowman ornament you can use as a gift for someone special or keep to decorate your own holiday tree! Each participant will be provided with a pre-glittered shatterproof ornament, paints, tools, detailed written directions and individual instruction needed to complete one ornament.

Once ornaments are painted, MaryMargaret, from Dots4Days will bring them back to her studio to let them dry completely, remove the guidelines, and apply a coat of varnish to protect the artwork you created. The ornaments will then be individually packaged and returned to Bard & Baker within one week so that you can pick them up during their regular business hours unless other arrangements are made prior to completion of the class.

No painting experience needed. All tools & supplies included in the cost.

Bring a friend! Also, please consider coming early to enjoy breakfast and a signature drink or stay after class to enjoy lunch. Supporting small businesses like Bard & Baker is what keeps them here for us to enjoy!

It’s $35 for the whole kit!!

Once you’ve registered I’ll send you the link to buy the tickets!!!
