New directions and ventures: Starting a business, practice, or side project
More and more people are rethinking what work looks like — starting something of their own, shifting into freelance or consulting, or exploring creative ventures beyond their day jobs.
This casual gathering is for anyone navigating that in-between space: building a business, launching a project, turning a craft into something more, or simply exploring what’s next - whether design-related or not.
🙂 Who it's for
People starting (or thinking about starting) a business, creative practice, or side project
Those freelancing, consulting, or shifting to independent work
Anyone reimagining their next chapter beyond traditional jobs
✨ What to expect
Lightly guided discussion prompts for the first hour
Open hangout time after — stay as long as you’d like
Come for the conversation, stay for the connections
