Nerd Nite: Twin Cities
@nerdnitetc.bsky.social
Once a month we gather the nerdy denizens of the Twin Cities to exchange knowledge and consume beer.
It’s the second Wednesday of the month, which means it’s time for Twin Cities Nerd Nite at @blackhartstp.com!

First talk of the night is Molly talking about “Ancestry Without Ancestry(dot)com.”

It’s the second Wednesday of the month, which means it’s time for Nerd Nite at @blackhartstp.com! And it’s October, so all our talks are spooooky! First up: Mara on the dead bodies of Lake Superior!

Come in from the cold for a spooktacular Nerd Nite. We've got three creepy-themed presentations for your viewing pleasure: horror films, werewolves, and corpses?! Show starts at 7, but come early to snag the best seats. It's bound to be a scary good time!

The kids are back to school and you know what that means? You need a night out! Still finalizing our program, but the forecast is looking like medicine with a sprinkling of rollercoaster law.

Doors open at 6:30pm, show starts at 7pm. Potentially on the patio pending weather. Be there AND be square!

Our first Nerd Nite Lightning Talk of the night is Emily on Fibonacci Numbers! We have five minutes for Emily to teach us all about infinite mathematical patterns!

It's @nerdnitetc.bsky.social Lighting Talks at @blackhartstp.com!

5-minute TED-style talks about esoteric topics like multidimensional circles, Icelandic horses, street numbers and simple math, and more...but (nearly) everyone is drinking.

It starts at 7 on the Black Hart patio!

I’m at @blackhartstp.com, where at 7 p.m. we’re hosting our monthly @nerdnitetc.bsky.social event. This month is special — instead of three 15-minute talks, we have more than a dozen 5-minute Lightning Talks!

I was a guest on the streets.mn podcast hosted by @facilitatorsher.bsky.social talking about my February @nerdnitetc.bsky.social talk about historical maps…and general map nerdery. Give it a listen!

Back on the patio this month with an extremely special line-up: Lightning Talks! We've got fourteen--yes FOURTEEN--of our favorite nerds giving fast and furious 5-minute talks on everything from Fibonacci to vampire bats, Chekhov to microplastics. Can't wait to nerd out with you all!

Nerd Nite is back out on the patio in July! Still finalizing our program, but the forecast is looking like history with a sprinkling of hobbits.

Doors open at 6:30pm, show starts at 7pm. Snacks/beverages available for purchase at our wonderful host, Black Hart Bar. Be there AND be square!

It’s June Nerd Nite out on the patio at @blackhartstp.com, featuring talks on Neopets, Fire-eating, and @scoopsstp.bsky.social on the old-timely intersection of streetcars and baseball doubleheaders!
June 12, 2025 at 12:32 AM
What do double-headers, FIRE-eating, and Neo-Pets have in common? Not much, other than those are our topics for June! We've got a sensational summer spectacle lined up--the only thing missing is you...and some beautiful weather for our first Nerd Nite OUT on the Patio this year. See you June 11!

Talk nerdy to me! What better way to while away a wearisome Wednesday than by sharing it with your fellow nerds?

Doors open at 6:30pm and show starts at 7pm. No cover, but you can purchase snacks and beverages to support our local LGBTQIA+ soccer bar, Black Hart. Be there AND be square! See less
