Ensemble Washington Reflects on an Inspiring Evening at Can I Ask You Something?

The latest edition of Can I Ask You Something? by Karen Okonkwo which occurred on June 23rd,  2026 transformed the rooftop at Apella Seattle into more than just a networking event. It became a space where creators, entrepreneurs, professionals, and community leaders came together to build genuine relationships, exchange ideas, and strengthen Seattle’s thriving community.

As a proud event partner, Ensemble Washington was honored to help make the evening possible alongside the City of Seattle Office of Arts & Culture. Events like these align perfectly with our mission of creating spaces where people connect, collaborate, and grow.

Unlike traditional networking events centered around collecting business cards, Can I Ask You Something? focused on something far more valuable: authentic conversations. Every interaction reflected the belief that meaningful opportunities begin with genuine human connection.

One of the highlights for our team was meeting so many incredible individuals at the Ensemble Washington table. We had the opportunity to introduce attendees to our newly launched Ensemble Mentorship Program, share exciting community initiatives, and connect with people who are passionate about making a positive impact across the region.

The evening also featured complimentary professional headshots by Kodjo, style support from Armoire, incredible photography and videography by MT Creative Solutions, delicious bites, and breathtaking rooftop views overlooking Seattle, all contributing to an unforgettable experience.

To everyone who attended, thank you for bringing your energy, curiosity, and openness. You reminded us that the strongest communities are built one conversation at a time.

And to the Can I Ask You Something? team, thank you for creating a platform that continues to redefine what networking should feel like.
