As a proud member of the Creative Lunch Club, I have connected with countless talented and inspiring creatives across Amsterdam, London, New York City, and Portland, OR. This community has enriched my international network and allowed me to collaborate with amazing freelancers on client projects for my purpose-driven creative agency. The Creative Lunch Club is a beacon of creativity and camaraderie in the industry.
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.
Creative Lunch Club is a great way to get off your ass, meet random creatives, and share a meal. Perfect for getting inspiration, energy, and a different angle on things.
