"So… what do you do?"

There's a better opening line, and we built an hour around finding it.

𝘽𝙚𝙮𝙤𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙉𝙖𝙢𝙚 𝙏𝙖𝙜 is a lightly facilitated lunch session built on two questions: who might I learn from, and who might I be able to help? Short one-on-one conversations, table topics you pick yourself, then open schmoozing time — which gets a lot easier once you've already met half the room.

𝗪𝗲𝗱𝗻𝗲𝘀𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗔𝘂𝗴𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝟮𝟲, 𝟭𝟮:𝟯𝟬–𝟭:𝟯𝟬𝗣𝗠, part of our IGNITE: Community Coworking Day. All career and life stages welcome. Lunch from included.

One violin. One family. One story carried across generations. 🎻

On 𝗧𝘂𝗲𝘀𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗔𝘂𝗴𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝟭𝟴, Bram's Violin tells the true story of a violin entrusted to a friend during World War II, and returned to its family more than 75 years later.

Through storytelling, photographs, history, and music, this presentation honors memory, friendship, resilience, and hope — and the power of holding onto what matters most.
