What is Curiosity Guild? We're a community of nerds and storytellers who delve into the overlooked corners of forgotten history.

We host cocktail-hour events where we present tales of history, science, adventure, art...! and the humans behind the stories

We may be nerds, but we are not quiet nerds. Expect an evening of laughter, toasts, and raucus callbacks.

Each event is a chance to meet, laugh, cry, gasp, and discuss with like-minded humans.

WELCOME TO CURIOSITY GUILD!

A community of inquisitive minds.
