About Us

Our Story

Social Capitol was built on a simple idea: when people come together with shared values, amazing things happen. Created by April and Anthony Lambatos, the husband-and-wife team behind Footers Catering and MIBE Leadership Development, Social Capitol brings their passion for connection, creativity, and community to life in a modern event venue. Rooted in over 45 years of hospitality excellence, our people-first culture shapes every event we host. More than a venue, Social Capitol is a hub for collaboration, celebration, and purpose—designed for those who believe great things happen when we work together.

Our culture is the heart of everything we do. We believe great events start with great people — a team that loves what they do and brings that energy to every detail. Guided by our values of connection, creativity, and care, we approach each event with curiosity and collaboration to deliver exceptional experiences every time.
