Culture C

When: Thu., April 3, 6-10 p.m. and Fri., April 4, 9 a.m.-5 p.m. 2014

Artists, innovators and entrepreneurs come together for the social mixer dubbed Culture C. The two-day event, organized by AmericaXL, will feature an array of speakers, seminars and workshops. Sounds to us like the kind of event that breeds creativity and inspiration. Pop artist Paul Rousso, whose past large-scale installations include crinkled currency and candy wrappers, is among the speakers. Music and wine, too. April 3, 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. at Packard Place, 222 S. Church St.; April 4, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Mint Museum Uptown, 500 S. Tryon St. For more information, visit www.eventbrite.com and search “Culture C.” (Anita Overcash)
