FOR LOCAL CLARKSVILLE BUSINESS OWNERS

Story & Photography by Tony Centonze

LOCAL Clarksville recently hosted a Mingle with LOCAL event at Sanctuary on Main. The sold-out event was open to Clarksville business owners and featured a panel discussion from several of this community’s entrepreneurial and leadership stars.

OfficeNOW owner April Consulo, Nicoletta’s Catering’s Nicholas and Virginia Nicoletta, and Leadership Clarksville’s Rich Holladay were among the panelists who engaged in a free-flowing conversation with the audience and answered their questions on starting and/or growing their small business.

LOCAL’s Kacie Bryant described the evening as “a structured event that provides a safe space to build real and lasting relationships within our community.” Becky & Rob Biencek
