Montclair AI Nights: AI for Everyone

Montclair AI Nights: AI for Everyone

Thu, Jun 25, 10:30 PM
From Montclair.ai

### The AI scene isn't across the river. It's down the block. **Real people. Real ideas. Real impact.** The AI conversation usually happens in silos — engineers with engineers, founders with founders, hype with hype. Montclair AI Nights is different. This is the room where everyone belongs — engineers and founders, small business owners and tradespeople, creators and educators, students and journeymen, contractors and operators, and anyone simply AI-curious. AI is reshaping work across every industry, and we come together to learn what it means for our work, our businesses, and our lives — and to meet the people building with it right here in New Jersey. **Montclair already has the talent. It already has the demand. Now it has the room.** **What to expect** * **Speakers** — short, sharp talks from people doing the work * **Live demos** — see AI in action, not just talked about * **Local startups** — meet builders shaping things from right here in NJ * **Networking** — connect with AI-curious people in your community * **Practical AI** — real use cases you can apply on Monday morning Topics we’ll explore include AI agents and personal assistants, creative workflows, small-business and field-service automation, scheduling and quoting tools, coding and developer tools, autonomous systems, and the future of work — across white-collar, blue-collar, and everything in between. Whether you’re a tradesperson, small business owner, engineer, founder, journeyman, creator, educator, contractor, operator, or simply AI-curious — you belong in this room. **Event details** **Date:** Thursday, June 25, 2026 **Time:** 6:30 PM – 9:00 PM **Cost:** Free — RSVP required **Location:** RecRoom at Lackawanna Station, 1 Lackawanna Plaza, Montclair, NJ 07042 **Agenda** * **6:30 PM** — Doors open, light refreshments, mingling * **7:00 PM** — Talks and live demos * **8:15 PM** — Networking and community discussion * **9:00 PM** — Wrap **Getting there** RecRoom is located at the historic Lackawanna Station, walkable from NJ Transit’s Bay Street station.

It's entirely up to you! **The Intro Circle** **Near the beginning of the event (2:30 pm), we do a standup in a circle:** * We first share organizer announcements, updates, and logistics **Introductions (7 secs max):** * Your name * Tech/coding topic(s) you want to talk about * Non-tech topic(s) you want to talk about * Job **opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one**. If none, that's cool. *After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized. We sometimes have FEATURES in a nearby room; check out those events on Meetup as well.* Doors close at 4:00pm. Please keep us updated in the comments if you're intending to show up late, as we want to ensure our venue hosts are able to clean up in time to get out by 5pm and enjoy their weekends. **🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Community Discord - come hang out before and after!:** [www.codeandcoffee.chat](www.codeandcoffee.chat) **Our Venue Sponsor:** [Pursuit](https://www.pursuit.org/)'s mission is to create economic transformation.
