Networking Events – May 2012

As I found last year, networking events are great ways to explore industries, meet some awesome people, and talk shop with those interested in what you love.

Yesterday, May 2, I attended the 2nd MEGA Networking Event at the Richmond Hill Country Club. Starting at 1pm and going until 4:30pm, I was able to attend the tail end of the event after work and was blown away by the size of it. Hosted in a larger venue by TheNetworker.ca – the same hosts of the Distillery District Networking Events – MEGA Networking provides even more ways to meet the people you want to know. The event was a great success, and I look forward to the next MEGA event.

Another event that I am extremely (understatement) excited for is York Region Arts Council’s first ever Arts After Hours Networking Event on May 24. Taking place at the gorgeous Willow Springs Winery in Stouffville and running from 7pm to 9pm, the night features a great opportunity to meet other artists in the area. It also includes wine and cheese tasting, raffle giveaways, and awesome performances by spoken word artist Sheniz Janmohamed and my good friend Manuele Mizzi. I can’t wait and hope to see you there.
