Kyle already mentioned local groups and I can recommend that too.
Short additional information: the signing itself is done by everyone by
himself at home but the verification of identity and fingerprints should
be face2face! I tried to find some information on the GnuPG site, but
the manual is not very detailed in this topic, so try your luck with the
keysigning party howto, at least the part about the "why":

I assume there is lot of additional information especially for beginners
on the web, just try the search engine of your choice. ;-)
