Upcoming Greater Cincinnati Events

Smoke & Embers
We formally invite you to join us for our last event of 2026: Smoke and Embers, a Fireside Chat! This will occur at Cincinnati’s newest historic venue, The Royce. In this intentional time together, we will have a top-notch of panelists discussing how we can see beyond our familiar circles.
We welcome members at 5:00 for a members-only cocktail reception, with general admission attendees joining at 5:45 pm. This event will be self-park, as we recommend The Garfield Garage with its close proximity to the venue.
Early bird member price: $80
Regular member price: $95
Regular non-member price: $115
