At this private Patio Social hosted by NWA’s Patio Community at Ashleigh Wine & Sake Lounge, the atmosphere was electric yet intimate — friends, neighbors, and local businesses gathered on the patio to enjoy evening breezes, fine sake, and meaningful connections. As the sun set, laughter filled the air, glasses clinked, and new friendships formed under softly glowing string lights.

Our team had the pleasure of documenting these moments of warmth: candid conversations over drinks, quiet smiles, shared stories, and the small gestures that bring people together. From the carefully lit bar spill to the laughter around tables, each photograph tells a piece of the evening’s story — a community coming together to support local, connect authentically, and enjoy life’s simple pleasures.
