Creative Community Catch-Up | October 2026

Halloween Special Edition 🎃 Connect. Create. Collaborate. Creative Community Catch-Up is a relaxed monthly gathering for creatives, artists, designers, performers, makers, entrepreneurs and curious minds but this month we're adding a little Halloween twist! Whether you're looking for inspiration, meaningful conversations, creative collaborators or simply a fun evening meeting like-minded people, this is a welcoming space to connect in a casual, no-pressure environment. There are no pitches or formal networking, just genuine conversations, shared experiences and opportunities to learn from one another. Come as you are, bring your ideas (or simply your curiosity), grab a drink and enjoy an evening of creativity, community and connection. Best Dressed Competiton We'll be celebrating the most creative looks of the evening, with a Best Dressed competition and more Halloween details and surprises to be announced soon. So get creative, we can't wait to see what you come up with! Our vision is to build a supportive creative community where conversations grow into collaborations, friendships and memorable experiences.
