LispNYC

The LispNYC.org community is devoted to the advocacy and advancement of professional software developers in their adoption of Lisp-based and functional programming technologies such as Common Lisp, Scheme and Clojure.

We accomplish this through targeted programs of education, outreach, monthly meetings, mailing lists, development projects and spirited conversation with NY metro area software develpment professionals.

Our monthly meetings are held every second Tuesday, are free and open to all.
