About this Event
This month at Collab we explore how artists, makers, crafters, entrepreneurs and YOU can turn the cast offs of a disposable society into amazing artwork, functional craft , business opportunity or just be given a renewed life!
What is Collab? Started in 2005, it's an art salon, a creative mixer, and a place to help figure out what you want to get up to next. Anyone is welcome, it is super easy to meet people, share ideas, get inspired, find collaborators, or get help on your project! It is a creative retreat for all of you artists, entrepreneurs, techies, makers, mad scientists, film folk, performers, investors, inventors and all around awesome creatives.
Our guest speakers are structured around an ask and give format. They are sharing their projects, their experiences, their amazing talents. And in return, they are making an ask of the community to help make their creative dreams reality.

INVITE YOUR FRIENDS! It’s always better when our community reaches out to create inclusion.
So come join us. First timers, Collab vets, and everything in between. We do ask for a $5 donation at the door, but we've never turned away anyone for lack of funds. If you can't help with $5, we'd love to have you help at the door for 30 minutes or so. We typically have some box wine and snacks, but we also welcome any beverage or food you'd like to add to the mix.
Can't wait to see you at the new COLLAB!
