In a time when people find spouses online but may not know the people living next door, the Hillside Club harkens back to an era when knowing and socializing with neighbors was just what people did. This club, Berkeley's oldest, is a place where neighbors can rediscover that sense of camaraderie with their community through potlucks, art shows, afternoon teas and frequent events for members. For those interested in learning more, every first Monday of the month the club holds fireside meetings featuring guest speakers and refreshments that offer a good way to get to know the club and its membership.
