Come kick it with us at MORTAR’s 5 Year Anniversary Party and Fundraiser, Friday, September 13.
We’ve created a night to immerse you in the talents of MORTAR’s Entrepreneurship Academy Alumni. Live performances by The Knotts Band and BAOKU’s World-Fusion Band, delicious food by Two Women and an Oven and Paityn’s Place, sweet treats by Key’s Cakes and Pies, Davis Cookie Collection, Mi’Chaya’s: The Sweet Spot Bakery, and Bonita’s Southern Style Sweet Potato Pies, plus music by Cincinnati’s premier party starter, DJ HD, and so many more surprises throughout the night. All provided by MORTAR Alumni!
Plus, we asked our 200+ Alumni to nominate their fellow Alumni (or themselves) for awards that are named after MORTAR’s core values (Equity, Integrity, Community, Revolutionary, Continuous Learning & Growth). We will be honoring, and surprising, the winners during the first ever MORTAR Awards ceremony. FIRST EVER! That means you don’t want to miss it!

GUESTLIST & CONFIRMATIONS: We understand that there are times when individuals or organizations purchase tickets to fundraiser events like ours to support, but are unable to attend. In that case, your seat will remain lonely, empty, and cold & the delicious food we have our grads preparing just for you may end up in a landfill. If you are unable to attend, please find a friend, family member, or co-worker to give your tickets to so they can at least send you a video of the amazing time that you missed – OR if you want to donate your tickets back to MORTAR, we can give those seats to members of our alumni who weren’t able to get tickets before they sold out. Either way, we’re requesting that you let us know the names of the people who will be using your tickets (or if you’re donating them back to us) by September 1st. You can do this by notifying to vic@wearemortar.com
