💬 No Small Talk: An Introvert’s Guide to Networking 💬
Queer Calgary is teaming up with Homegrown Arts & Media Collective for a special workshop about building real connections without the fake smiles or forced elevator pitches.

Through honest conversation, interactive tools, and a few well-placed exits for when your social battery dies, you’ll learn how to show up with confidence (even when you’re sweating), craft a meaningful intro, and use shyness to your advantage.
When 📅: Sunday, August 10th - 1:00PM - 3:00PM
Where📍: Enmedia Gallery - 2005 10 Ave SW, Calgary, AB T3C 0K4
Cost 💸: Free! (Free light refreshments will be provided!)We can't wait to see you there!
