About us
Every month, 1500 volunteers in 65 countries host a free monthly breakfast speaker series for their local creative community. This happens in over 200 cities to an audience of 20,000 attendees. We're lucky to have you. In 2008, Tina Roth Eisenberg (Swissmiss) started CreativeMornings out of a desire for an ongoing, accessible event for New York’s creative community. The concept was simple: breakfast and a short talk one Friday morning a month. Every event would be free of charge and open to anyone. Today, attendees gather in cities around the world to enjoy fresh coffee, friendly people, and an international array of breakfast foods. Volunteer hosts and their team members organize local chapters that not only celebrate a city’s creative talent, but also promote an open space to connect with like-minded individuals. The growing archive of past breakfast talks is humbling. From design legends to hometown heroes, speakers are selected by each chapter based on a global theme. CreativeMornings remains free thanks to the support of local sponsors, generous venues, and longterm partners. Anyone can attend. Just register beforehand to reserve your spot. And if you need a little help convincing your boss to let you attend, we’ve got you covered. Remember to set your alarm, and we’ll see you in the morning! ------- OUR MANIFESTO Everyone is creative. A creative life requires bravery and action, honesty and hard work. We are here to support you, celebrate with you, and encourage you to make the things you love. We believe in the power of community. We believe in giving a damn. We believe in face-to-face connections, in learning from others, in hugs and high-fives. We bring together people who are driven by passion and purpose, confident that they will inspire one another, and inspire change in neighborhoods and cities around the world. Everyone is welcome.

CreativeMornings Medellín, how I love you. The community, the connections, the energy, the creativity, the inspiration. I'm always in awe of our members and their brilliant insights, thoughtful questions, and vulnerable sharing. I'm always fascinated and moved by our kind, generous speakers, who challenge us to think outside the box, embrace discomfort, and grow in whichever of the million different ways that could exist. Building this community has been one of my greatest joys. As if we're inching closer to our anniversary 🤯 ??!! (and to all the amazing things we're bringing with it!). How is it going to be a year already? Entonces, si quieres ser parte de este espéctaculo de comunidad cara-a-cara de creativos en Medellín siguenos en instagram.com/cm_medellin_ o en nuestra página de LinkedIn. CreativeMornings
🥑✨ Si hay una palabra con la que describiríamos a Ximena Hoyos de Lavocaderia es generosidad. Una persona absolutamente generosa con su tiempo, con su conocimiento, con su equipo, y con los creativos de la ciudad que la admiran y ven en ella un referente de talento, determinación y carisma. En febrero, Ximena nos acompaño con su charla sobre capas, narrando las muchas capas e ingredientes que fueron necesarios para emprender y despegar un negocio exitoso. Nos quedaron unas lecciones que jamás olvidaremos: 1. La autenticidad es clave en los negocios ✨ 2. Ser brutas pero decididas 💅🏼 3. Perderle el miedo al error 👻 4. Vital contratar a las personas expertas en campos que no lo somos 💪🏼 5. Escuchar, escuchar, escuchar - y aplicar 📝 Xime, quedamos eternamente agradecidos por que le dedicaras esta mañana a CreativeMornings y a todos ustedes por acompañarnos! Estén pendientes de los anuncios para marzo, porque como dicen por ahí, se vienen cositas 🙊 📸: FotograFer - https://lnkd.in/ezzBsVx9

I know I’m not the only one who found themselves at a networking event, trapped in an endless loop of awkward small talk and filled with way too many “𝐒𝐨, 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨?” conversations. So the liberty we have with CreativeMornings we always to experiment and while doing that we ask ourselves: 🤔 𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘥𝘰 𝘸𝘦 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘢 𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘮 𝘸𝘦𝘭𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦 - 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘴 - 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘥 𝘴𝘢𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘱𝘪𝘵𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘴 𝘰𝘳 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘤𝘦𝘥 𝘴𝘮𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘬? 🤔𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘥𝘰 𝘸𝘦 𝘣𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘥 𝘢 𝘴𝘱𝘢𝘤𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘢𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘯’𝘵 𝘨𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘬𝘦𝘱𝘵 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘴𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘰𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘭𝘺, 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘴 𝘢 𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘰𝘸𝘯𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘱? The answer? Let people in. Not just as attendees, but as co-creators. When people bring their own ideas, shape the event, and see their contributions come to life, it stops being our event—it becomes theirs. That’s why CreativeMornings works: it’s not a show; it’s a sandbox where everyone gets to play. That's what we did for February's breakfast too. The theme was Layers. As we peeled back different layers of creative expression, we also uncovered the stories that make people who they are. But the best part? The 40+ 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐩𝐢𝐞𝐜𝐞s we co-created together. Every single person added their own layer— proof that when you open the doors, magic happens. Maybe that’s what life is, too. A big, collaborative canvas where we all get to leave our mark. ---- CreativeMornings is a monthly breakfast lecture series hosted in 238 cities across the globe, supported by Adobe.
