About this Event

SEATTLE CREATES x New Tech Northwest Monthly Social


Join SEATTLE CREATES at New Tech Northwest’s monthly meetup—a casual hang where creative + tech folks come together to see what’s actually happening around the city.
If you’re into art, design, dev, startups—or just curious—you’ll be in good company. It’s an easy space to meet people, learn something new, and tap into the creative energy shaping Seattle right now.

We show up here because it’s where ideas cross over. Design thinking, innovation, S.T.E.A.M.—it all lives in the same room. Our role is to help connect those dots and bring more creatives into the mix.

You’ll find us during the opening networking hour, hosting interactive S.T.E.A.M. moments that make the connection between art + tech feel real. Think digital art, AR/VR, fashion, projection, sound—different entry points into the same creative process.

Nothing too formal—just good people, good ideas, and space to explore.


🗓️ Date: Tuesday, May 12, 5:30pm
🎟️ Tickets: Tickets normally run $20 (or $27 day-of) — but because of our special partnership with New Tech Northwest, we're bringing limited discounted tickets to our community. Grab yours here before they're gone.

Enjoy hosted light bites, refreshing beverages, a cash bar, and connections with new friends and peers.
🗣️Presenters: Founders, leaders, creatives + innovators share their passion and new tech through 8-minute presentations and 3 minutes of Q+A. Line-up to be announced soon. Follow us on eventbrite, instagram, or join our newsletter to be updated.

The Vibe
