If we will ever be able to travel to other galaxies, the nearby galaxies will remain accessible for a very, very long time. Indeed, the Local Cluster (us, the Andromeda Nebula, the Magellanic cloud etc) may well be gravitationally locked and will not be split up by the expanding universe. So it all depends how common life is. If there is, on average, one culture at a time per galaxy, then we will contact them if we ever get intergalactic travel (far from trivial). If, at any time, there is only one culture per, say, 10^4 galaxies, we may well never meet them.
