By Any Means

​Join us for a celebration of Philly’s Black Creatives! Mix, mingle, and network with other Black creatives, and support black owned businesses!

​Collab Philly is a community of Philly’s professional and emerging creatives, we host events to help people grow their networks and careers. For February, we’re throwing a festival in honor of Black History Month.

​The Art Show

​Enjoy an art show featuring Black Artists from the Philly area. Artists include:

​Amir Berry, Blair Nesmith, Devyn Dais, Henry Nwalipenja, Jordan Plain, Jennifer Oviedo, Nadia (scoops), Nazir Wayman, Shadimere Coles, Winter Scarlett

​The Art Market

​Dig into a curated selection of Black Owned brands doing really cool things. Vendors include:

​Frederick Scott, Sankofa Floral Design, Nothing Unwanted Studio, Canteen NJ and Aunties Coffee. Triple Bottom has food and drinks for purchase.

​The Networking

​You are welcome to network for our entire time together but from 1-3pm, we’re carving out some time to network with a bit more intention! We’ll have color coded name tags associated with your skill, convo starters questions to spark conversations, and (the new part) an hour of speed networking to get us moving. 💫

​Here’s how it’s going to go:

​👋 1-1:30pm Welcome and Introduction: Get your name tags, grab a bite or drink, and settle in

​🚀 1:30-2:30pm Speed Networking: Chat with someone who shares your creative passion for 10 mins at a time. Swap ideas, share your projects, or get feedback on something you’re working on.

​🤝 2:30-3pm Final chats: Revisit any connections you made or chat with someone you didn’t get a chance to. Exchange information with others so you can stay in touch!

​All are welcome, allies included! We hope you'll join us in celebrating Philly's Black Creatives, By Any Means. 🖤
