Get Out Network is an enrichment organization working with youth and young adults aiding in their professional, social and artistic development. Founded in 2012 in Cincinnati, Ohio, the Get Out Network seeks to serve as the leading platform for millennial youth and young adults who want to find, showcase, and inspire others through the pursuit of their life purpose.

The Get Out Network explores topics such as art, athletics, business, philosophy, creativity, education, and spirituality; our theme is “Get up, get out, and do something!”

A day full of activities enriched with entertainment, food, wellness, authors, empowerment speakers and more — to connect women from all around the world.

Come out and join us for dinner and conversation! We’ll be in the back room unless there’s a special event going on in that room.

A Time Bank is a community of people who support each other. When you spend an hour to do something for an individual or group, you earn a “time credit.” Then, you can use that “time credit” to buy an hour of a neighbor’s time or engage in a group activity offered by a neighbor. It’s that simple. Yet it also has profound effects. You get to know your neighbors and friends and build an old-fashioned extended family of people who take care of each other. A Time Bank changes a whole community. Bring a dish to share and learn about the Care and Share Time Bank.

Join progressive friends for food, drink and great music.
