&RECAP: GATHER THANKSGIVING LUNCHEON

Celebrating Community at the Annual &Gather Thanksgiving Luncheon at Ampersand Studios

This Thanksgiving season, our Ampersand Studios community came together for a day of gratitude, connection, and celebration at our annual &Gather Thanksgiving Luncheon. Both our Miami and Nashville communities shared in this special occasion, where good food and great company took center stage.

The luncheon featured a spread of holiday bites, a grazing table, a dessert spread, and wine and beer for everyone to enjoy. Members gathered around beautifully set tables, adorned with conversation cards that inspired meaningful connections and new friendships.

For a touch of fun, we introduced Member Bingo, a lively activity that got everyone mingling and learning more about one another. Winners took home gift cards to local coffee shops, adding an extra touch of holiday cheer.

In Miami, attendees were treated to a special performance by members of the Florida Grand Opera, whose talent brought a magical atmosphere to the luncheon. It was a unique moment that highlighted the diversity within our community.

During the event, we took a moment to reflect and give thanks. A short speech was shared, expressing our gratitude to all our members—both long-standing and new—who make Ampersand Studios the community it is today. We also shared our excitement for the growth and opportunities ahead, as we continue to build and nurture this amazing community.

Thank you to everyone who joined us this year—we’re so grateful for each and every one of you. Here’s to a season filled with joy, gratitude, and continued creativity!
