This end-of-year panel event features YOU
Favorite Things: Our Creative Obsessions
A new twist on gift guides, inspiration, and community connection.
Tired of holiday lists filled with gadgets and gimmicks? So are we. This season, we're celebrating what truly inspires us... daily habits that feed our soul, new musicians that spark joy, and local inspirations that keep our creativity alive.
Join us for "Favorite Things" - a festive, community-driven event inspired by Oprah's iconic list, reimagined through a creative lens.
What to Expect
- Inspiring Lightning Talks (5 minutes each). Local creatives take the mic with a 5-minute TEDx style talk + slideshow to convince us why we should fall in love with their "favorite thing" (Think: an artist, a ritual, a book, a local nonprofit, a place, a weird hobby, etc.)
- Creative Submissions OPEN! Have a favorite thing you’re obsessed with? Submit your idea by Fri, Nov. 21 for a chance to be one of our featured speakers!
- Artist Showcase featuring Demos by Local Creatives. Local artists and musicians will showcase their current projects.
- Creative Community Vibes. Good conversation, warm connections, and a night to refuel your spirit. Snacks and drinks provided.
A Fundraiser for the Creative Community
Our Favorite Things event isn’t just a celebration; it’s a chance to invest in the future of our creative community. Proceeds from ticket sales, raffle and silent auction will help fund our 2026 programming and sustain our mission of amplifying the voices of creatives in Carmel and beyond.
Your presence helps make Create What You Crave’s monthly events possible, events that offer visibility, connection, and creative inspiration to hundreds each year.
