ONA Nashville: Hang out with a bunch of journalists and nerds

 An ONA Local event, hosted by ONA Nashville

Come hang out with Code for Nashville, the Society of Professional Journalists, and the Online News Association.

We’re going to get together for some booze, some conversation, and a couple of lightning fast presentations on the potential and power of the confluence of tech and journalism. We have a lot to offer each other in terms of our professions and perspectives, so come learn some stuff and meet people.
