**Archive note:** Edited from my January 2026 invitation. This event took place on February 8, 2026.

For February 8, I booked Seven House Art Gallery in Williamsburg for an Anchor event. I wanted to bring creatives and people working around NYC together, including new grads who were still getting to know the city.

We called it a Creatives x Professionals mixer. The plan was pretty simple: spend a few hours at the gallery and meet people. There wasn’t a panel or a speaker schedule to sit through.

I also invited brands and small businesses to bring their work and show people what they were making. The original invitation is linked below.
