New Area Residents Invited to Gallery Walk Mixers

 Local Organizations Partner to Welcome Newcomers Each Month

New and returning Vermonters are invited to a monthly reception as part of Gallery Walk. Each first Friday, from 5pm to 7pm, the Downtown Brattleboro Alliance and Brattleboro Development Credit Corporation’s GROW SoVermont program will partner to host a newcomers mixer at 57 Elliot Street.

The hosting organizations encourage longtime locals to bring a new friend, coworker, or employee to the mixers to help them get connected to more people in their new community. 

Appetizers for the first newcomers mixer, on May 3, will be provided by Jamaican Jewelz. 

GROW SoVermont is part of a statewide network to welcome new and returning residents and is funded in part by Vermont’s Agency of Commerce and Community Development. Learn more at sovermont.com/grow or contact GROW SoVermont program manager Rachel Shields Ebersole.
