After Hours at Southerly Abode


Held the third Thursday of every month, After Hours brings business people together for an evening of networking and refreshments.
 
RSVP here for our January After Hours Jan. 19. at Southerly Abode

Trend: Why did you decide to host a Chamber networking event?
Southerly: We wanted to host an event to meet other active members in Chattanooga. We are hoping to network with other business owners in the community.

T: What is special about your business?
S: We are a female-owned business. Our firm's design philosophy blends classical and contemporary elements; I love working with pieces clients already own – the mix of old and new creates a space that looks collected instead of designed.
 
T: What’s your favorite part of being a Chamber member and why?
S: We are fairly new to the Chattanooga area and to the Chamber; however, during our brief membership time, we have already learned a great deal about the community and met other interesting professionals.
 
T: How does your business make a difference in our community?
S: We bring good design to a variety of settings.
 
T: Anything else you’d like to add?
S: We have found Chattanooga to be a very welcoming and fun city. We are so proud to be a part of this community.
