- **Event Description**: Welcome to GVL Connect ✨—  an event all about breaking bread, breaking barriers, and making authentic connections.About this Event✨ Welcome to GVL Connect — Sip, Learn, + Connect! ✨This isn’t your typical networking event — it’s about breaking bread, breaking barriers, and building real community.Greenville, every month we come together as one community to shake hands, learn from each other, ask questions, and grow authentic connections will other locals.What to ExpectFirst of all, parking is free at Venture X; and stress-free in the large, paved, lit parking lot. After check-in, grab a drink, snack on some charcuterie, and make some great connections. If you're an art-lover (or nervous introvert), feel free to wander around the building to take in the local art hung gallery-style around Venture X.Around 6:30, the Nonprofit of the month will share about their local impact. Then Joanna will lead a thought-inspiring discussion—and you're part of it! Everyone is welcome to join the conversation as we dive into a “binary” topic (i.e. introvert vs. extrovert) and unpack the rich spectrum in between two opposing sides — not to debate, but to learn, grow, and connect with each other.After the group discussion, everyone is invited to continue the connections and conversations over another plate before wrapping up by 8:00 pmEvent Organizer—Joanna ReeseJoanna Reese initially launched the GVL Connect event series in 2017 after relocating her marketing agency to Greenville from her hometown of Hendersonville, NC.
