We’re looking for a new host in Cleveland!

In 2008, Tina Roth Eisenberg, also known as Swissmiss, started CreativeMornings out of a desire for an ongoing, accessible event for New York’s creative community. The concept was simple: breakfast and a short talk one Friday morning a month. Every event would be free of charge and open to anyone.

Today, attendees gather in 224 cities around the world to enjoy fresh coffee, friendly people, and an international array of breakfast foods. Volunteer hosts and their team members organize local chapters that not only celebrate a city’s creative talent, but also promote an open space to connect with like-minded individuals. We call ourselves an engine of generosity and live by our manifesto

CreativeMornings Cleveland’s previous host has since stepped down so we are now looking for a replacement. Could this be you?

If you are:

- passionate about your local creative community in Cleveland
- psyched to lead a small volunteer team to put your own spin on CreativeMornings
- excited to participate in the global conversation among our chapters
- one to use the words humble, driven, resourceful, generous and connected to describe yourself

We’d love to hear from you! If interested, complete our standard New Chapter Application and we’ll be in touch.

There will be follow up interviews for the top candidates.

We look forward to receiving your application!

The Bop Stop is just past the Northwest corner of West 29th and Detroit Ave. in Ohio City. There’s some parking at the Bop Stop, some street parking throughout the neighborhood, all-in-all plenty of free places to stow your wheels - though I’d recommend walking, biking, or using the readily available public transit line. Street parking in the neighborhood may be a short distance to the venue so would leave time for a dandy little jaunt to get to the venue.

Check-in begins at 8:30am
