The Hivery SF Residency: Opening Day
Hosted by The Hivery
Tuesday, September 8 | 11:30 AM – 3:00 PM
ERIA, San Francisco (2300 Chestnut St, San Francisco, CA 94123)
The Hivery is back in the city — this time as a Fall residency at the gorgeous ERIA on Chestnut Street in the Marina District. And we are arriving the only way we know how: with community, creativity, and a day that feels less like an event and more like an inspiration lab. Space to experiment, seek, clarify, connect, ask for help, be seen, and gather amidst a real sense of belonging.
This is not a networking event. This is a gathering of seekers, founders, impact-makers, creatives, writers, and brilliant women who believe that being in community (especially when we’re creating next chapters) can change everything.
And on September 8th, we are building that room in San Francisco.
Come for the connection. Stay for the magic. Browse showcases from Hivery members who are building something extraordinary. Get a book signed by a Hivery author. Add your vision to our Bees with Big Vision Board. Hear Grace share the origin story of The Hivery — where it started, where it has been, and what it is dreaming up next in San Francisco. Then roll up your sleeves for one of the most energizing connection sessions you have ever been part of, built around the questions that actually matter: What are you working on? What do you need? What can you offer?
This is the day The Hivery brings its community back to the city we love so dearly. We want you there for it.
The Hivery SF Residency opens September 8th at Eria on Chestnut Street. Doors open at 11:30am.
