Calgary Creator Night with Brit MacRae & Lauren Howe
Hey Calgary & area creatives! You're invited to join us for a Creator Night at House 831 (831 17 Ave SW) from 6:00PM - 10PM featuring special guests Brit MacRae & Lauren Howe. If you've been looking for a consistent place to get to know others in the community over a drink, build new connections, and learn from each other, you're in the right place.
Our June event will include a creative fireside chat featuring two out-of-town guests with experience ranging from Film & Television to the creative startup scene. We'll also get to take in a short film screening presented by Brit & Lauren.
What to Expect:
There will be plenty of time for connecting and catching up with others before and after the fireside chat with light food provided, and drinks available for purchase. The game plan will be to do everything outside (weather permitting) so bring a light jacket or layers in case it cools down a bit in the evening.
Schedule:
6:00 - 6:30 PM - Doors & check-in, social
6:30 - 7:30 PM - Creator Fireside Chat with Brit MacRae & Lauren Howe
7:45 - 8:30PM - Short Film Screening

Due to capacity constraints limited spots are available so grab your spot early and we look forward to seeing you there.
