    Dear Friends,

    Happy New Year!

    I hope you all had a wonderful festive season. From the week of January 10th, we will resume our activities - hurray!! We already have a long list of upcoming events, so check out the message from our VP team and the "safe the date" section.

    In the course of January, the eNews will start a "classified" section in which INC members can introduce their services to the community. Our INC board would also like to encourage all members who run an enterprise to advertise for free on our website. To find out more, please see the board's "Business and Passion" message below.

    With best wishes for 2022

    MESSAGE FROM THE

    VICE PRESIDENT TEAM

    Monthly Meetings 2021
    Happy New Year! Oh how time flies when you’re having fun…and we’d say we’ve had a lot of that. From the cava brunch on the roof top of Vincci, to chocolate tasting in Centro Riojano, from our sip n’ shop holiday experience in the sleekly designed AREA, to our festive fiesta Castanet performance at Cambridge Soho… the experiences and company have been great and we intend to channel the same energy as we move into the new year.

    Let’s take a sneak peek at what’s in store for 2022. First, we’ll kick off January with a unique inside look of one of Puerta de Alcala’s most beautiful buildings: Hotel Hospes. We’ve enlisted the help of two of INC’s very own community (Barbara Scalera and Char Tamason) to take us through a “reset” moment for our mind, body and spirit. February will provide us with the opportunity to lunch together. We’ve secured reservations in one of Madrid’s trendiest new restaurants: Calauna. Together we will enjoy a Spanish/Italian fusion meal in a an elegant building that was once a masonic lodge as well as a church. We’re also currently in the planning stages of March, where we plan on learning a few fancy foot moves and dancing away our morning.

    So here’s to the year ahead…here’s to more fun, friendship, health and happiness for us all!

    In INC we aim to cherish and support all aspects of our members' life.
    As such we would like to encourage all members who run an enterprise and/or those who are pursuing their passions to advertise for free on our webpage under the tab 'Networking' as part of your membership benefits.
    This way fellow members and friends will know what you are up to, and the general community will get a glimpse of what calibre and talents our members have. Are you unsure whether this is for you? Rest assure that nothing is too big, or too small! We are interested in you! Please check out what other members are doing on Networking Madrid.

    Additionally, and as part of our updated communication guidelines, we will also be pleased to post your adverts in the eNews once per semester (fall, winter and spring). Please contact Alexandra at enews@incmadrid.org for more information.

    THE AGE BLISSFUL.
    CHILDHOOD ACCORDING TO SOROLLA
    Museo Sorolla, C/ General Martínez Campos
    31 January - 19 June 2022

    Children became protagonists of Sorolla's paintings from the beginning of his career. Sorolla paints his family on numerous occasions and receives commissions from the bourgeoisie and aristocracy to paint their children.
    In his paintings, the artist presents the life of children in the second part of the 19th century. Sorolla's work also traces scenes of "another childhood", less happy, less fortunate. This "other childhood" is also portrayed by Sorolla with the same affection and dignity.
