To Nfocus Readers and Social Planners, Who says there’s nothing to do in Nashville? Just take one quick glimpse at The Season, Nfocus’ Social Calendar, and you’ll find more than enough parties and events to fill your schedule.

For 23 years, we’ve documented these events in the pages of Nfocus, bringing you the ins and outs of the most elegant and exciting events in the community. Since that first black-andwhite cover from the Royal Chase, Nashville has welcomed fresh faces, new causes, a vibrant downtown landscape and social scene as well as a multitude of diverse, multi-dimensional parties that benefit wonderful causes throughout the city. We hope our calendar is a handy guide to help you determine where to go, whom to support and when to plan your own event.

If your event didn’t make it into the calendar, no worries. Just shoot us an email at socialcalendar@nfocusmagazine.com, and we’ll add the information to our online calendar. Be sure to check us out at nfocusnashville.com.

A special note of thanks for this year’s calendar goes to Carly Peterson. This recent graduate from University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill interned at Nfocus, gathered information for the calendar and kept us organized throughout the summer. She was a wonderful addition to our team.

Now — a few housekeeping notes on how we operate and answers to common questions you’ve asked us over the years: How can I get Nfocus to cover my event?

Send an invitation to 210 12th Ave. S., Suite 100, Nashville, TN 37203. This will tell us not only where to be and when to be there, but it also gives us a sense of the party, indicates dress code and helps us interpret the event to our readers. Our first priority is to cover charitable events. We occasionally crash private parties, significant birthdays and important anniversaries too.

And we always appreciate receiving event updates via email at socialcalendar@nfocusmagazine.com. Our calendar fills up quickly, so please send invitations at least a month in advance.

01-03_FC-IFC.indd 3

Where can I find Nfocus?

The most reliable place is our office at 210 12th Ave. S. in the Gluch. Or check your favorite grocer (Kroger in Belle Meade, Brentwood and Green Hills; Whole Foods in the Hill Center and Franklin), restaurant or salon. Some selective merchants also stock Nfocus. Nfocus begins hitting stands on the first or final Thursday of the month.
