What we’re about
This is a meetup group for the creative people of Stockholm who are looking for companionship of other creatives. We aim for a simple sense of community to begin with, and if people are inspired, perhaps some collaboration can happen.
Meetups are held on a regular basis where we engage in conversations and discussions about a predetermined topic of interest.
People of all creative fields are welcome to join. Whether if you are into creative writing, filmmaking, painting, photography, performing, designing, or just have a general interest in creativity, we would love to meet you. It is a rich mix and makes for a lively meetup!
With a healthy dose of “fika”, we encourage and inspire each other to explore our creativity by fostering a vibrant space that is supportive and non judgmental.
Things to expect:
• A friendly group of supportive people to hang out with on a regular basis.
• A safe environment for new creatives and established ones.
• Fika!
Things that we avoid:
• Judgment calls. This is a friendly community where we can find support and camaraderie.
• Drama. Let's leave the drama in the fictional stories!
If this sounds like a fun interesting group, feel free to join and come to one of our meetings!
P.S. We have a private Facebook group, please join it if you have attended an event.
