Dream & ConneKt: 2026 Vision Holiday Event for Film & Media Creatives

Dream & ConneKt: 2026 Vision Holiday Party is a holiday hangout for film and media folks who want to step into 2026 with more clarity, support, and joy - together.

Instead of sitting at home trying to plan your goals by yourself, join us and:

• Set intentions and goals for your 2026 creative & personal journey
• Create a vision board that actually feels like you
• Write a letter to your future self
• ConneKt with other filmmakers, producers, actors, writers, crew, and other media creatives

You’ll be in a room full of people ready to cheer you on and champion your goals for 2026.

• Create a 2026 vision board for your film/media career and life
• Use journaling prompts to clarify what you actually want next year
• Turn big dreams into simple, doable next steps

We’ll guide you through writing a letter to yourself one year from now:

• Capture what you’re dreaming about now
• Speak kindly to your future self
• Name the projects, feelings, and experiences you hope to have in 2026

This gathering is for anyone in or around the film and media world:

• Filmmakers, directors, producers
• Actors, writers, editors, DPs, crew
• Content creators, film and media professionals

If you’ve ever wished you had people to plan with, dream with, and hype you up, this is for you.

For Vision Boards:

Any imagery or materials you’d love to include, such as:

• Printed photos
• Magazine clippings
• Words/quotes
• Stickers, washi tape, coloured paper, etc.
• A notebook or journal (optional but recommended)
• Your favourite pens/markers if you like using your own

We’ll provide basic supplies (paper, glue, scissors, markers), but bringing your own images and materials will make your board feel more personal and powerful.

For the Letter to Your Future Self:

• We’ll provide paper and envelopes - you bring your honest, hopeful self.

• Date: Saturday, December 13
• Time: 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM

• Warm, welcoming, and non-judgmental
• Introvert- and extrovert-friendly - you can be chatty or quiet and reflective
