Every month, we have one General Meeting (3-4 hours) where we hang out, play games, and eat food. We have large anime-themed games (Pictionary, Jeopardy, Name That Tune!) and host raffles. Refreshments are provided at every meet.General Meetings (GMs)
Some months have themed GMs, too (October - Halloween, February - Valentine's). Sometimes, we do inter-club socials with our roommates, FOLD, the U of T Origami Club.
These require a membership or entrance fee ($2).

We also have small panels where we invite members to come together and just chat about a common topic or theme. They're hosted by one or two execs and the rest is up to you! Panel themes we've had in the past include sports anime, slice-of-life anime, and dubs vs subs.
We throw events whenever we want (or members want) and we're super flexible, often having group trips to anime or gaming related events in the neighbourhood.
Our Art Studio holds their own anime club art meets and events where you can draw together, do fun group activities, learn to draw, share your art, and just be around other artists or soon-to-be-artists. It costs nothing to join and it's a ton of fun.Art Meetings
They also do a yearly Secret Santa event where participants exchange drawings.
