There is a variety of chavurah groups that meet on a periodic basis. Generally, they are formed based on particular interests and/or age groups. This is a current list of chavurot but you can always be creative and suggest new types with special interests (like a gourmet group, book group, movie group, museum group, Jewish Studies, etc.)
