Canterbury Creative Club: September Gathering

Join us for an evening designed to help you step away from the day-to-day, slow down and connect with like-minded people.
About this Event

The September Gathering is a thoughtfully curated experience for creative founders, freelancers and small business owners who are looking for genuine conversation rather than traditional networking.

Throughout the evening you'll enjoy a welcome drink, seasonal grazing by DASS Hospitality, a gentle movement session with Shaped by Joanna, and an honest conversation with business owner Natasha Spencer as she shares the lessons, challenges and experiences of building a successful business.

Whether you're coming on your own or with a friend, you'll leave feeling inspired, refreshed and connected to a community of people who understand what it's like to work on their own.
