Meet other creatives in Toronto for lunch
Toronto is a city where culture and creativity thrive, bringing together a diverse community of artists, designers, and innovators. With its dynamic arts scene and entrepreneurial energy, it’s a great place for the Creative Lunch Club to grow and connect creative professionals. Our community in Toronto includes Graphic Designers, Photographers, Artists and Creative Directors, all contributing to the city’s ever-evolving creative landscape.
Join Creative Lunch Club
I joined CLC a couple of months ago and have met some pretty awesome creative peeps. Every month you get paired a couple creatives from your city to plan a lunch with to talk shop. It's a great way to expand your network - extremely great value IMO.

The Idea
Meeting other creative and inspiring people is one of the best things about working in the creative industries. But networking events are boring. Wouldn't it be much nicer to meet other creatives over lunch?
This is where the Creative Lunch Club comes in. We bring creative people together to have lunch together.
So lovely and energizing to connect with other designers, bonding over shared experiences, loves/qualms about our work, how to avoid creative burnout, what we're looking forward to, and so on. Looking forward to continuing to make these thoughtful connections and have meaningful conversations.

How it works
Join the Club, and we will connect you with two other creatives from your city once a month. Together you set a time and a place and have lunch.
There are no rules for lunch. Talk about your work, projects, what inspires you, and what you enjoy.
I've met so many wonderful people this year trough Creative Lunch Club. It's been a great way to meet people in different industries and has been way more personal and fun than networking events.

Meetups
Besides our matching system, we also host meetups in larger groups. These have a fixed date, time, and location, and create space to meet even more creatives, share ideas, and connect beyond your usual circle.
As a Creative Lunch Club member, you can join these meetups for free and be part of the wider community coming together around a shared table.
When I joined Creative Lunch Club, I didn't expect to connect with people who live in the same neighbourhood as me. It's pretty cool to build a community of creatives in your vicinity, especially because it's easier to nurture those connections when you live in a big city. I love it.

Creative Lunch Club has been an inspiring way to connect with fellow designers, virtually and in-person. I love sharing exciting events with others – like AIGA DC's Design Week – and hearing firsthand what people want more of in our creative community. It's a great space for conversation, collaboration, and discovering new perspectives.

The CLC is great because I can easily get to know previously unknown creative people in the city, gain new inspiration, expand my talent network and also discover new corners and restaurants in the city. I think CLC members are curious and open-minded people by nature. It's always exciting to learn more about the city's creative scene and its projects. At my previous meetings, we always had interesting discussions and the time for lunch was often far too short. I'm already looking forward to my next CLC.
