HARTFORD, CT, October 20, 2014: More than 100 women gathered on the evening of October 9 to celebrate Pullman & Comley’s 2014 Networking Tea in the atrium café of the Hartford Public Library. Now in its fourth year in Hartford, the annual event hosted by Pullman & Comley’s Women’s Leadership Initiative provides an opportunity for women professionals to network while also supporting the work of a local nonprofit organization.
This year’s event paid tribute to the Hartford Public Library and the numerous programs and resources it makes available to the citizens of the City of Hartford and nearby communities. As one of Hartford’s greatest treasures, the library’s ten locations service nearly 1 million people each year, granting each of them access to reading and research materials, music and video, as well as programs that provide education and enrichment in citizenship training, literacy, business skills, cultural awareness and more.
