Do you work from home, freelance, run your own business, study, or spend much of your day working on your own? Cowork & Connect is a casual gathering for anyone looking for a little more human connection in their workday. Remote and independent work can be isolating when you don’t have a traditional workspace. So we’re creating a community gathering where you can get things done while enjoying some organic social time. Bring your laptop, admin tasks, a side project, study prep, or simply that one thing you’ve been putting off. Settle in, get some work done, take a couple of social breaks, and chat with others doing the same. 📅 Date: Friday, October 30 🕐 Time: 12:00 - 2:00 PM 📍 Location: Origin Cafe & Wine Bar, 23-11 44th Dr, Long Island City, NY 11101 https://share.google/xR3JyaEhmgZ7fvqGf 🎟️ Free to attend but registration is required. 💛 Hosted by Jenny Jiang @collective.ripples To support our wonderful venue, we ask that guests purchase a beverage or food item from Origin Cafe & Wine Bar during the gathering.
