February Events

[Ryan Price]

Here are some events to watch for in February. Florida Creatives is on
the 18th, but there are lots of other great things happening.

Apartment E's 15th Anniversary Party
http://apartmente.com/
Frankie Messina has been gathering together Orlando's creative
community for meetups, events, and sending them to support arts, music
and culture around the city for 15 years now, and they're celebrating
with a big party and some live music.
Details:
Saturday, February 9th, 7:00 - 11:00 PM
Moose Lodge Family Center, 5665 S Orange Ave

Artsy Happy Hour

Every month, some folks from the United Arts of Central Florida (which
is primarily associated with theatre) get together for a bit of a
happy hour. It's always on a Wednesday, and they used to do it in
Winter Park at the Wine Room, but now Taste and College Park are home
to this event.

Likemind is our coffee morning - we try to get together before work
downtown, for the folks that need to get to work early to get some
free coffee and snacks. If you're around later in the day, the market
has a fun collection of gourmet hot dogs named after real dogs.

Friday, February 15th, 8:00 - 11:00 AM
B & S Daily Market, 47 E Robinson St

**Florida Creatives Happy Hour**
http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/421607/
It's networking, it's beer, it's fried pickles, tater tots and cajun
cuisine, all in the middle of downtown Orlando. It's always a good
time, and this month I've been working to try and get some people back
who we haven't seen in a few months. I've also been talking to a guy
from Jacksonville (brewgroup.org) about starting a Florida Creatives
up there.
