More than twenty-five of Nashville's leading voices including Breland, Mayor Freddie O'Connell, and María Magdalena Campos-Pons will host intimate discussions on art, culture, business, and more at OZ Arts Nashville’s tenth annual Conversations at OZ.
The fundraising event is set for February 19 at 6:30 p.m. at OZ Arts’ innovative creative warehouse. The signature event brings together more than two dozen prominent figures from the worlds of arts, business, civic leadership, and more for an evening of engaging dialogue over dinner and cocktails. Many notable hosts will lead discussions, such as legendary photographer and musician Lynn Goldsmith, former U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, and acclaimed architect Kem Hinton. The complete list of hosts is available on the OZ Arts website.
Patrons will engage in lively conversations with community leaders on a broad spectrum of topics ranging from the role of artificial intelligence in society to the importance of provocation in contemporary art. Conversations at OZ is not only a gathering of bright minds but also a major fundraiser for the organization. Proceeds support OZ Arts Nashville’s mission to foster innovative and accessible artistic opportunities in Middle Tennessee. The event is co-chaired by a group of local leaders, including Dr. LaDonna Boyd, president and CEO of R.H. Boyd, and Wendy Burch, COO of The Future of Free Speech, among others.
Guests can choose between two ticket levels including a patron-level ticket, which includes access to an exclusive pre-event reception with the hosts, or a standard-level ticket, which includes entry to the cocktail hour and the seated dinner with a host.
