Speak Easy

SPEAK EASY is a Networking Group designed specifically for speakers and those interested in speaking.

Whether you are practicing storytelling, preparing for a keynote or actively working on your presentation skills, this is an event to get practice in front of an intimate audience. You may also join us as a spectator if you have aspirations of taking the stage one day.

Speakers will get the opportunity to work in a safe, supportive, creative environment in a theater style venue that promotes performance and stage presence. We will limit each event to a maximum of 5 open speaker slots.

If you’re building up the courage to take the stage one day, please register and join us as a spectator!
Doors open at 6:00 PM for early socializing and networking. The speaking portion of the event will begin at 6:30 PM, followed by more opportunities to connect and chat with everyone after we’ve concluded with our speaker session.

Want to wet your whistle or grab a snack? Beer and wine are available for purchase along with an assortment of other beverages and food items in the VisArt Cafe.

SPEAK EASY is held in-person the first Monday of each month.

I had a great time at the Speak Easy event hosted by Brian Lafontaine! From the networking opportunities to the chance to step up and do a one-minute improv, it was both fun and valuable. I especially appreciated the insightful feedback Brian gave to each speaker – it was constructive, encouraging, and spot-on. Looking forward to the next one!
