CreativeMornings is a free monthly breakfast lecture series designed for creative communities. In 2008,
Tina Roth-Eisenberg founded the lecture series in
Brooklyn, New York as 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.
Lecturers include professional creators, designers, photographers and illustrators.
CreativeMornings hosts events in 207 cities worldwide in 65 countries. Their events are run by approximately 1,500 volunteer organizers.
