OpenSpace

Thanks to everyone who came out last night! A tour and Q&A at the new building included a 3-D modeling of the new space provided by Jeff Bushman and Natalie Feaver of Bushman Dreyfus Architects. We concluded with drinks and hors d’oeuvres at the X-Lounge, just a quick walk down the street. Click here for photos of the event.

With construction just about to begin in the space, it’s exciting to imagine what we’ll be doing in the fall. With an autumn opening, we’re hoping the space will be buzzing with Charlottesville’s finest professionals!

So, the next biggest announcement is soon to come. We’re finalizing  options for both the memberships and conference room spaces and hope to announce both pricing and sign-up within the month.

In the meantime, we’ll see you at all the local gatherings in the coming months: TweetUps, First Wednesdays, beCamp, CBIC Awards and AMA.

We are very excited to have everyone come out tonight! We got an amazing response from the community and should have a crowd of about 40 people tonight. It’ll be a great chance to network with other potential users of the space (as well as a great excuse to continue the TweetUp planned for 5:15 at 12th Street Taphouse). If you haven’t already RSVP’d, it’s not too late. Email hello@getopenspace.com and come join us for a couple of rounds of drinks and hors d’oeuvres!

Potential OpenSpace members, join us on Thursday, April 16th. We’re scheduling a monthly networking session for everyone interested in using the space, so there’s an opportunity to network with other potential members before our opening this fall.

The first will be April 16th, from 6:00-8:00 at X-Lounge. Drink specials and appetizers provided! RSVP to hello@getopenspace.com.

Join us at 6:00 at X-Lounge to then take a quick walk to our location at 455 Second Street (one block from X-Lounge next to ACAC) for a tour of the new building. See the space before our construction crews move in and take over!
