Calgary entrepreneurs gather for work-from-home holiday party [Video]

The office Christmas party invites are out, and employees across Calgary are ready to mingle.

But what about entrepreneurs or folks who don’t work traditional jobs?

That’s where the work-from-home holiday party came in.

A festive group made up of business owners and entrepreneurs gathered at High Line Brewing on Thursday.

It was a chance to make connections and new friends.

“Being an entrepreneur has a lot of bonuses, but it’s also kind of a particularly lonely career if you don’t have a team with you,” said Nora Cruickshank, wedding photographer.

She said the event let people “get to do things that are part of the culture of having co-workers, even though you don’t have them.”

This is the second work-from-home party.

The first one was held over Stampede this past July.
