Networking Event to Build Creative Skills With Artist Ilija Blanusa

Entrepreneurship asks a lot of us. Vision. Resilience. Problem solving. And sometimes, the most powerful thing you can do for your business is pause long enough to reconnect with your creativity.

On February 9th from 5–8 PM, join me for a special edition of my signature networking event, featuring Durham Region artist and sculptor Ilija Blanusa.

Ilija has been part of this community since the very beginning. If you have attended one of my events over the years, you already know him. He is the quiet encourager, the steady presence, the one cheering others on from the sidelines. This evening, it is time to put him in the spotlight.

Ilija will guide participants through a relaxed, hands-on creative activity using pencil crayons, helping everyone tap into their creative side. No experience needed. No pressure. Just a chance to get the “creative on” and allow your mind to reset.

Why creativity matters for entrepreneurs:
Engaging in creative activity helps reduce stress, improves problem solving, and allows the brain to form new connections. When business feels heavy or stuck, creativity creates space for clarity and fresh perspective.

As always, this event is designed to connect humans first, not just businesses.

Date: February 9
Time: 5:00 – 8:00 PM
