Fanny's (the restaurant at the Academy Museum), and The Next Fun Thing are teaming up to present Reel Connections: Speed Networking for Filmmakers, a professional twist on speed dating geared toward supporting young, up-and-coming filmmakers as they navigate their entrance into the film industry. More than a simple mixer, the event will require a pre-survey and feature a moderator that pairs attendees with a curated selection of peers in order to foster meaningful connections.

WHAT'S INCLUDED:

• 8 handpicked people to connect with during the 'speed networking'
• A complimentary cocktail
• Small bites
• A voucher to visit Fanny's at a later date
