Creative Meetups

Creative Meetups

It started when a friend told me:

“You’re the only other designer I know.”

That didn’t sit right with me. I believe all designers need to have creative friends to relate to and grow with.

I began to identify what designers needed most.

The answer, I believe is
Community.

I began hosting creative meetups, announcing on social media the time and place I would be studying at. Five meetings later, the attendance has shot up to 13 people! I think we’re onto something here . . .

There are 3 key values for creative meetups.

Relate

People thrive through human connections. Encountering like-minded peers who avoid using corny fonts like Comic Sans and Papyrus is an added bonus.

Encourage

Encouragement boosts self-confidence, combats insecurity, and empowers individuals through positive reinforcements.

Grow

Meetups foster friendships and provide opportunities for sharing experiences and broadening perspectives.

Here’s what some of the attendees had to say.

I captured snippets of creative meetups I hosted to promote the next upcoming meetup.
