If you stepped inside Westinghouse HQ on May 2, 2024, you would have been met with a room full of energy and anticipation for our fundraising event, Story Exchange. Rows of white chairs filled the space, occupied by an incredible mix of guests—some longtime 541 regulars, others experiencing our community for the first time. But no matter their connection to us, they were all there for the same reason: to listen, connect, and be moved by the night’s storytellers.
Nearly every seat was filled, and as the last story wrapped, the celebration continued. In the adjacent room, the afterparty buzzed with laughter and conversation. Guests enjoyed homemade treats, sipped on handcrafted mocktails, captured memories at Snaptique’s photobooth, and browsed our merch while live music filled the space.
It was an unforgettable evening—one that truly reflected the warmth and generosity of our community.
To everyone who attended, supported, or believed in our mission: thank you. You are what makes 541 such a special place, and we’re so grateful to have you on this journey with us.
