The Voice Collective: UNMUTED Vol. 1

The room is set.

UNMUTED Vol. 1 will take place at The Grand America — inside the private Laurel dining rooms.

Some conversations change minds.
Some change behavior.
Some change the way you see yourself.

UNMUTED is an intimate evening of music, storytelling, and honest conversation — where voices aren’t filtered for performance, they’re shared for connection.

This isn’t a lecture.
This isn’t a networking event.
This is a room designed for truth.

Guests will gather for a curated four-course Laurel dinner, a live acoustic performance by Ellee Duke, and a powerful four-woman panel exploring healing, identity, and voice.

This is an intentionally intimate, limited-capacity experience created for meaningful connection.

We’re not gathering an audience.

We’re gathering humans.

They heal when they are heard.
