Grow & Socialize: Men’s Series at The Ari Creative Event Studio – Fort Wayne, IN

A Night for Entrepreneurs & Growth-Minded Men

Grow & Socialize is launching our first-ever Men’s Series , an intentional room built for men who are building businesses, leading teams, supporting families, and looking for stronger community.

This isn’t surface-level networking.
This is strategic connection.

What to Expect

6:00 PM – Strategic Networking Walkthrough

When you arrive, you’ll have time to connect with local business owners and featured tables around the room. These aren’t vendor booths, they’re conversation starters.

Each table will represent a local business or entrepreneur, with prompts like:

• “Ask me how I started a podcast.”
• “Ask me how I scaled my business.”
• “Ask me about hiring my first employee.”

Walk the room. Grab a drink. Ask questions. Meet other driven men in our city.

Food & Tastings Included

Enjoy appetizers from Salsa Grille and Mocha Lounge, along with a curated spirit tasting and non-alcoholic beer tasting.

Featured Speakers

Tyler Davis – Owner of Triumph Studios

Dustin McKibben – Founder of Art Home

Open Networking to Close the Night

After the speakers, we’ll open the room back up for continued connection and conversation.

Come alone.
Come with a friend.
Either way, you’ll leave with stronger connections.

Who Should Attend?

• Entrepreneurs
• Small business owners
• Aspiring business owners
• Leaders
• Growth-minded men

If you’ve ever avoided “networking events” because they felt awkward or unstructured — this room was built differently.

Let’s build up our community the right way.

Spots are limited. Secure your seat.
