COMING SOON
A salon is a gathering of people encouraged by the host to partake in discussion and interaction that inspires passion, (amicable) debate, and new friendships.
Salons have a centuries-old tradition, and can be traced back to the French literary and philosophical movements of the 17th and 18th centuries.
These events will be hosted one Sunday a month, for two hours. A general theme will be presented for each event to inspire conversation, but not dictate conversation.
Let's create a vibrant and supportive community; form meaningful relationships, exchange ideas, and collaborate on projects that inspire innovation and growth.

Founders, entrepreneurs, and business owners who want to expand their network and local customer base.
Performers, artists, writers, and content creators wishing to share their work and voices.

why bring back the salon?
We are in an emergent era.
We have been dormant.
Our platform for connection has been remote, divisive, and replicated by AI.
In our emergent era, we welcome a renaissance.
Speaking person-to-person reminds us of our humanity. It provides space for deliberate, active listening and exchanging of thoughts.
It’s a space to share our creative projects, find our Muse, support each other, and find ways to lift each other.
