It’s that time of year, folks! For most of us, the holiday season brings a mixed bag of cozy sweaters, festive cocktails, and anxiety over travel plans and gift giving. For those of us who are not traditionally employed, it’s also a time when we look on with envy as our friends and family members enjoy cozy, mildly scandalous celebrations with their coworkers at their office’s annual holiday party.

Well envy no more, wandering workers. Scopic is partnering with Workfrom to throw our very own non-office holiday party! All the fun and excitement of a traditional office party with none of the petty office drama. Our party has it all:

Karaoke!

White elephant gift exchange!

Pictures with Santa!

A raffle with amazing prizes!

Seasonal beverages!

And more!

In the spirit of giving, we will be donating 25% of the proceeds from this event to the Millers Scholarship Foundation, which is working to provide scholarships for houseless individuals and reduce the stigma around houselessness. We will also be accepting donations at the door*, and your donation will earn you a raffle ticket!

Be sure to get your tickets online! They will be $15 at the door.

The price of admission includes 1 drink ticket and 3 raffle tickets, with which you can enter to win some amazing prizes worth up to $300.

We look forward to celebrating the season with you!
