Event description

This event is your basic classic networking with Bizniks of now and yesteryear!

The venue is super cool! It's a new wine bar on the 11th and Pine-ish area, on the capital so the parking kinda sux, so - be aware! You can always find parking somewhere and then walk and believe me, it's worth it!

The entry way of Vermillion is a large open standing room with art on the walls. On the 16th of September, I don't know what will be up, but the artwork changes about 1-3x a month.

They just opened! The deeper cove in the back of the bar has seating that can easily hold about 50 people.

Vermillion is a new VERY COOL venue and you must check it out!

Check out the wine

Check out the tasty classy nibbles

Check out the artwork

Check out the connection possibilities with the cool freaky indie business people that show up.

disclaimer: people that show up need not consider themselves cool or freaky for me to consider them cool or freaky. I usually just assume I don't know you well enough yet to say, "yes - you are in fact, a bit freaky..." because, I mean really... we're all just a touch freaky*

    Aw, man! I wish I could come but I will be taking my folks back to the airport. Sigh. Let me know when you have another!

    I went to Vermillion last Friday with my husband and a couple of friends (we wanted to see the Thai movie poster show before it came down) and it was great! Ditto everything Sierra said - yummy inexpensive eats, good wine/beer/cider selection, interesting art, great space, friendly owners. Looking forward to going back!

    I had to drop out because I'll be on my way to Florida at that time. The venue sounds great, too bad I'll miss it this time. I hope you host another one at this location Sierra. Have fun everyone! :)

    The only evenings I don't have clients is Thursdays. I hope you host this event on a Thursday some day so I can go.

    I think hosting such an event on a thursday can easily be arranged. The only days that I will never do a biznk networking event would be Friday Saturday and Sunday. monday, I've discovered, for happy hours... not the greatest day. sweet spot seems to be tues/thurs with wednesday as a close second to those days. now I need to find the bloody sign in sheet. Can't find the doc on this site for the life of me! meh!

    Thanks for creating this, Sierra. Loved this space and this event, but had to duck out early to put out a fire for a client. Let's do this again soon, so I can recapture what I missed.

    I've got it in the works to do this again on the 23rd of October. I have to check with the venue to see if they are down but I think it should be a go!

    yay!
