Reservations are open until 6PM CST on Wednesday, February 23. If you are attending the online event and have any questions, please contact OZ Arts at info@ozartsnashville.org or (615) 350-7200.

Conversations at OZ is a fundraiser celebrating the art of conversation with community leaders and vibrant personalities. One of the most dynamic annual benefits in Nashville, the event invites guests to engage in insightful dialogue on a range of contemporary topics including arts and culture, social issues, business, and government.

Building upon the success of last year’s virtual edition, the 2022 event offers the opportunity to connect with prominent figures online for intimate, engaging discussions from the comforts of home. Participants will gather online for a warm welcome from OZ Arts, before joining their small group and chosen Conversation Host.
