The rundown

10:30 AM

Welcome

Join community builder and entrepreneur ANGEL ANDERSON for a dose of inspiration to get your day started right.

The Power of Co-Ops for Artists & Freelancers

Join in a discussion with JENNIFER BRYANT and SAM BONAR about the power of cooperation in building equity and furthering collaboration. Learn how creatives and freelancers can come together to build opportunity and ownership through co-op models, and how when we let go of ego, give up on the zero-sum game, we can create new ways of connecting and growing our impact.

12:00 PM

Cooperative Winning Workshop

Hang on for a short on-your-feet seminar with SAM BONAR to build and demonstrate cooperative and transformative winning. This not to miss improv comedy and emotional intelligence training sparks community through playfulness and gives the skills needed to be inclusive, bold, powerful, and funny.

 Lunch

Enjoy lunch provided by Femme Fatale DC.
