On December 8th, there will be an open house for Amy Hutcheson and Kat Gore to show their artwork. The event will be downtown at the 363 Gallery. The 363 Gallery is located at 363 South Main Street.
The event is from 2-4 PM. It’s a holiday open house at the gallery, so you can come and go anytime between 2 and 4.
If you miss it, the art will be on display until December 23rd, but I’d recommend you go to the open house when you can network.

On Wednesday, December 11, 2013, Connect Memphis will host The Preview, an evening social at the Fedex Institute of Technology at the University of Memphis in room 225 from 6-9 PM.
The event will serve as an introduction to what Connect Memphis does for the city and a sneak peek into what attendees would see at their January benefit: The Professional Connection.
They will be doing The Memphis Puzzle at 7pm, which will give insight into some great facts about our city. Representatives from local mentoring programs will also be on-hand to discuss mentoring in Memphis, as their benefit in January will raise funds for Memphis Grizzlies TEAM UP and Optimum Learning.
The event is FREE, but a suggested donation of $5 is encouraged. Learn more about the pieces that makes Memphis an amazing place to live!

Although I typically try to share free networking events, this is one worth considering. The Memphis Business Journal is hosting their Book of Lists Bash. Tickets are $100, and dress is cocktail attire.
The event is on Thursday, January 30th from 7-9:30 PM at Opera Memphis. The night will feature live music by Party Planet, a blue-carpet champagne entrance, refreshing cocktails and delicious food prepared by local favorites Charlie Vergos’ Rendezvous, Itta Bena | B.B. King’s Blues Club & Southward Fare & Libations.
Have fun and get down with Memphis’ most influential people!
