Find Your Thing Fair - TEENS ONLY

Find Your People. Find Your Passion. Offline.

Let’s be honest: making genuine friends and finding stuff to do outside of school isn’t always easy. Between the pressure of grades, infinite scrolling, and group chats, finding a real-life community can feel weirdly impossible. A lot of teens feel like they’re the only ones sitting at home bored, but the truth is, so many of your peers are looking for the exact same thing you are: genuine connection.

That’s exactly why we created the Find Your Thing Fair.

Think of it like a giant expo—but instead of stressful college recruiters, the room is packed with awesome clubs, hobby groups, and youth organizations from across Cleveland. Whether you’re into art, robotics, sports, volunteering, coding, or you honestly have no idea what you’re into yet, this is the place to figure it out.

The vibe is completely low-pressure. You can stay as long as you want, walk around, grab some free snacks, dive into some hands-on activities, talk to local groups, and hopefully find your new weekend crew. We’re playing community matchmaker with no algorithms and no filters. Just real people finding their thing.
