Calling All Young Professionals! 🍻

It’s never too early to celebrate the holiday season! What better way to kick off the festivities than with an Ugly Sweater Happy Hour?

Whether you uncover a vintage gem from your parents' closet, create your own DIY masterpiece, or find the perfect delightfully tacky sweater online, come dressed to impress. We'll be awarding prizes in a variety of categories, including Most Vintage and Most Creative.

Join us for this YP-Only Holiday Hang at Centennial Crafted Beer & Eatery in River North. Enjoy delicious comfort food, seasonal cocktails, a wide selection of beers, and great conversation with fellow young professionals.

Feeling shy? Bring a YP industry friend and celebrate the season together!

Register today and show off your holiday spirit for a chance to take home a prize! 🎄

Register early as space is limited.
