🤫 Making Connections: Speak Easy After Hours

Step behind the hidden door and into an evening where great conversations are anything but a secret!

Join the Woodstock Area Chamber of Commerce & Industry for our 2nd Making Connections: Speak Easy After Hours Networking Event on Tuesday, August 25, from 5:00–7:30 PM at the unique Emerson & Oliver Speakeasy.

Whether you're looking to grow your business, expand your network, or simply connect with other local professionals, this one-of-a-kind networking experience is designed to help you build meaningful relationships in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Open to both Chamber members and non-members, everyone is invited!

This isn't your typical networking event.

Forget the awkward scramble of trying to work the room. Throughout the evening, you'll participate in guided networking with small-group table conversations centered around engaging discussion topics that make introductions easy and conversations meaningful. As the evening progresses, you'll rotate to new tables, giving you the opportunity to meet a variety of fellow business owners, professionals, community leaders, and potential customers—all while building genuine connections in a fun, low-pressure setting.

Be sure to bring plenty of business cards because you'll leave with new contacts, fresh ideas, and valuable relationships that can help grow your business.

Your Ticket Includes:

  • Shared appetizers

  • One complimentary beverage—choose our featured signature cocktail or signature mocktail, or enjoy a beer, wine, soft drink, or water

Space is limited to just 40 attendees, so don't wait to reserve your spot!
