Summer ’26 Sip N Swap
Aug 4 | 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm PDT
Connect and Collaborate
Sip N Swap is our popular high-energy, facilitated networking event series. It brings together above- and below-the-line creatives and crew members from across the entertainment industry. Established and emerging filmmakers alike expand their networks and exchange ideas while rolling dice and answering prompts. The dynamic and engaging atmosphere regularly sparks exciting new collaborations, and we can’t wait to see you! Get your tickets early – seating is limited and we will sell out early.
Guided by Women in Media Events Chair Paige Blankenship of Blank Paige Films, this dynamic happy hour features a welcome drink ticket and chef curated bites in the downstairs lounge at the fabulous Mrs. Fish! The venue feels like you are in an aquarium. You will want to get their early to enjoy the Full bar and dinner (available for purchase). All are welcome to stay after the event is concluded.
Sip N Swap networking….. but not networking
