About this Event

A night for Miami’s art directors, copywriters, strategists, designers, and founders to skip the DMs and actually hang out in real life.

Leave the stiff corporate buzzwords and awkward business card exchanges at the door. Miami Ad School, Knotel, and AAF South Florida are bringing Miami’s creative community together for Creativity Connect—an evening of genuine connection, fresh hand rolls, drinks, and good music with the people driving the local creative scene forward.

The main goal is simple: get everyone in the same room to hang out, share ideas, and find your next creative partner or collaborator. As an added bonus, we’re hosting a candid 45-minute conversation on where creative culture, agency life, and independent studios are heading into 2027.
