Just last month, the laundromat hosted Unfold Margins for their <b>writing hour<\/b> session &#8211; for <b>$42<\/b>, people looking to craft stories gathered here, with <b>free<\/b><b>&#8211;<\/b><b>flow snacks<\/b>, <b>coffee<\/b>, and <b>tea<\/b> to keep them going.<\/p>\n<p>They also hosted the Creative Screens Co-working Club for Unfinished Projects for a different kind of session; with <b>no entry fee<\/b>, writers could choose to bounce ideas off each other or lock in on their work.<\/p>\n<p>But of course, they also host events for the community around them, with activities for all ages. They invited the seniors at THK Home @ Chai Chee for a tea break, and before that, opened their space for a community-led storytelling session for kids.<\/p>\n<p><i><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-392102\" src=\"https:\/\/thesmartlocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/SOCIAL-GATHERINGS-HANGOUT-LAUNDRY.jpg\" alt=\"Social Gatherings - Hangout Laundry\" width=\"1440\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thesmartlocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/SOCIAL-GATHERINGS-HANGOUT-LAUNDRY.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/thesmartlocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/SOCIAL-GATHERINGS-HANGOUT-LAUNDRY-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thesmartlocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/SOCIAL-GATHERINGS-HANGOUT-LAUNDRY-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/thesmartlocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/SOCIAL-GATHERINGS-HANGOUT-LAUNDRY-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/thesmartlocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/SOCIAL-GATHERINGS-HANGOUT-LAUNDRY-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thesmartlocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/SOCIAL-GATHERINGS-HANGOUT-LAUNDRY-65x65.jpg 65w, https:\/\/thesmartlocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/SOCIAL-GATHERINGS-HANGOUT-LAUNDRY-120x120.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><br \/>\nImage credit: @hangoutlaundry.sg via Instagram<\/i><\/p>\n<p>\u201cGoing to conventional mixers can be pressuring for some.

Joell hosts the dinners in person and personally curates the guest list to ensure the best vibes and conversations at the table.<\/p>\n<p>Participants fill out a questionnaire designed by Joell to draw out their quirks and personalities, from which she shortlists a group of <b>10-12 participants<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p><i><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-392098\" src=\"https:\/\/thesmartlocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/SOCIAL-GATHERINGS-DINNER-WITH-STRANGERS.jpg\" alt=\"Social Gatherings - Dinner with Strangers\" width=\"1440\" height=\"1800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thesmartlocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/SOCIAL-GATHERINGS-DINNER-WITH-STRANGERS.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/thesmartlocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/SOCIAL-GATHERINGS-DINNER-WITH-STRANGERS-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/thesmartlocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/SOCIAL-GATHERINGS-DINNER-WITH-STRANGERS-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/thesmartlocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/SOCIAL-GATHERINGS-DINNER-WITH-STRANGERS-120x150.jpg 120w, https:\/\/thesmartlocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/SOCIAL-GATHERINGS-DINNER-WITH-STRANGERS-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thesmartlocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/SOCIAL-GATHERINGS-DINNER-WITH-STRANGERS-1229x1536.jpg 1229w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><br \/>\nImage credit: @107.stories via Instagram\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy criteria shifts according to each pool of applicants, and I don\u2019t ask for demographic information apart from age and names to make sure the pool is diverse. So my decision depends on how I think applicants will be able to gel,\u201d said Joell.<\/p>\n<p>Shortlisted applicants will then receive anonymised profile cards, and decide who they would like to be seated with, after which the results are run through a formula for optimised seating. The dinner fee varies according to the venue, with prices in the range of <b>$50-$100 <\/b>including an admin fee.<\/p>\n<p>The concept is similar to Timeleft, a social events platform that books a venue and matches strangers for dinner meetings. But instead of attendees being tossed into the venue alone, Joell sits with guests at the table.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think being there personally to host is something unique to DWS. It\u2019s marketed as a social gathering, so we have attendees who are attached or even married,\u201d said Joell. \u201cThere\u2019s no pressure to market your best self like at a dating mixer, and it\u2019s more community building than anything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The next dinner has just been announced for <b>26th June 2026<\/b> at <b>Smolder Seafood Grill &amp; Bar<\/b>.
