SUMMARY:Mentors & Martinis VOL. 01: Personal Branding
DESCRIPTION:Mentors & Martinis is a women’s-only event series from We Bond and Heliopolis\, where ambitious women learn from women who’ve done it. \n\n\n\nThis is Volume One. The first of many. And we’re starting where it matters most: your personal brand. It’s what gets you the referral\, the invitation\, the callback\, the client who somehow already trusted you before the first conversation. Opportunities don’t usually go to the most qualified woman\, they go to the one who came to mind. \nFor more details about the event\, please click here \nGet a ticket! \n\n  \n\n\n\n\n

DESCRIPTION:This October\, Pasta Wednesday takes on another identity.

SUMMARY:FilmConnect's First Wrap Party
DESCRIPTION:You made a film. Possibly on no sleep. Possibly while questioning your life choices at 3am with a camera in one hand and cold coffee in the other. Now it’s time to see it where it belongs — on a big screen. \nNot the theatre kind. We’re not quite there yet. But considerably bigger than the phone you’ve been forcing your friends to squint at. A real screen\, a real room\, and your work in front of a real audience. \nAnd here’s the part the internet can’t give you: you’ll finally get to meet the people you’ve been collaborating with\, commenting on\, and connecting with online — in person. Same creative community\, except now with faces\, handshakes\, and the strange novelty of talking without a keyboard. Turns out filmmakers exist in three dimensions. Who knew. \nCome for your premiere. Stay for the people. Your first drink’s on us\, because you’ve earned it. \n

SUMMARY:Poiesis Collective @ Heliopolis
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an intimate salon evening\, a contemporary revival of the French tradition where creators and curious minds came together to observe and understand art\, and connect with one another over a shared admiration. \nThree artists will open their practice to you: sharing their work\, the thinking behind it\, and the path that led them there. This is art experienced up close and through conversation. The evening closes with a panel discussion and open Q&A\, where the floor is yours.
