Creative Drinks: York Creatives Monthly Social
About this Event
Don't forget to from £2.50 a month BEFORE you book your ticket to get FREE entry to York Creatives drinks every month!
Creative Drinks is a monthly social for York's creative community.
This year, we're teaming up with creative communities around the city. We're bringing you an hour talk, generally from 6-7pm to kick off the evening and then it will be the usual social from 7-10pm.
Come along to enjoy a drink, meet some new people and expand your creative network.
There's no set agenda, no talk, no sales pitches, just grab a drink (alcoholic or non!) and strike up some conversations.
Whether you're a student, a young professional, a seasoned pro, or a retiree - all are welcome! (Under 18s must be accompanied by an adult).
We're a friendly bunch so please don't be intimidated to come alone if you don't have a friend to bring, many people come alone and so you won't be the only one.
Creative Drinks now takes place at PATCH, located in The Bonding Warehouse.
Enter via the gate on Terry Avenue, thorugh the main door then turn left up the ramp. Access is step-free throughout.
Photographs and videos will be taken at this event for promotional purposes. If you do not want to have your image used you must inform us at the door upon arrival.
