May Networking Mixer Hosted by The Alchemy Space
Thursday, May 28, 2026 | 5:00 - 7:00 p.m.
All Truckee Chamber Members are invited to join us for our May Networking Mixer at The Alchemy Space downtown, a welcoming community hub centered around creativity, connection, and well-being. This is a different kind of mixer, focusing on connections, wellness, and networking. As they continue to shape the space as a sanctuary for presence, healing, and conscious connection, The Alchemy Space is being very intentional about what they offer and how they gather. In that spirit, The Alchemy Space is choosing not to serve alcohol, as it doesn’t align with the kind of grounded, aware environment that they are cultivating.
Come sip mocktails, enjoy snacks, and bring your business cards for networking and the door prize drawing. We are excited to meet the founders and see their beautiful space. More than a traditional studio, The Alchemy Space brings together movement, meditation, and creative expression in a setting designed to inspire and energize.
This unique space offers a blend of classes, workshops, and community gatherings that foster personal growth and meaningful connection, creating a place where locals and visitors alike can come together and feel part of something special.
Come connect with fellow Chamber members, build new relationships, and experience one of Truckee’s newest community-focused spaces.
