A Glimpse Into Capital Connect
The agenda below reflects our inaugural Capital Connect in 2025, where we welcomed Sotheby’s colleagues from across the country for a thoughtfully curated series of gatherings throughout Washington and at Woodside Farm. While each future iteration will evolve, this provides a sense of the experience, pace, and level of access that define Capital Connect.
