CreativeMornings is a breakfast lecture series for the creative community.
Started six years ago in NYC by Tina Roth Eisenberg, almost one hundred volunteer hosts and their team members organize local chapters elsewhere in the world.
During the first CreativeMornings Summit in 2014, hosts from around the world gathered in Brooklyn. What drives someone to be a volunteer host and what is their biggest challenge and reward. We'd try to find out interviewing 10 of them.

#CMSummit14 Y'all
Last week the CMNSH team took to the streets of NY(!!) for the first CreativeMornings Summit! For the first time, HQ invited all chapter hosts & their team members to join together in Brooklyn for a two-day Summit. From Bogotá to Singapore, we gathered from 30 countries to exchange stories, learn from each other, create together and—in the spirit of CreativeMornings—(finally) meet in person.
Thursday morning, bright & early, took us to the Invisible Dog in Brooklyn to get things started!
Monkeying around with MailChimp + all the great partners who have joined together with CreativeMornings to make this event and the CM community as a whole, something spectacular! Shutterstock, Squarespace, Moo, Blue Bottle Coffee & Six Point Brewery
Swag & snacks!
Our fearless leader, Tina Roth Eisenberg, took the stage to school us on the full history of CreativeMornings. Without her trust in other creatives we wouldn't have our chapter here in Nashville today!
Tina Roth Eisenberg: Founder, Sally Rumble: Chief Happiness Officer, Carly Ayres: Chief Content Officer, Kevin Huynh: Chief Operating Officer = the Amazing CMHQ team filled us in to the inner workings of HQ and how all 99 chapters are doing in the big picture of our global conversation & global domination.
It's easy to come to a local CM event & lose the big picture that we're all part of a something bigger than ourselves. The Summit as a whole really put our CMNSH team on the same page and we're stoked to help better educate our local community & continue the mission—with donuts!—& coffee!
On top of countless amazing talks & lessons by other organizers from around the world, we got to hear poet, Sarah Kay, speak and move us all with her words. If you haven't seen her TED talk, look it up! We also got to divide into groups & workshop with Fred Dust & his team of IDEO in a CreativeMornings future brainstorming session. 2015 is going to bring loads of new ideas from this session & we cannot wait! (photos below from our amazing @swissmiss' instagram)
At times things just got crazy, in the best way. Sally constructed the geodesic dome, complete with disco light, cm quotes & fake cat decorated in gold! (Alicia may have found her spirit animal)
We spent an evening at the Shutterstock office in the Empire State building where we found ourselves on a tour of their incredible offices complete with hidden game rooms! Shout out to our new friend Rob, Shutterstock's Social Media Manager!
Friday morning we attended CMNYC's event on CROSSOVER at the MOMA with speaker, Steve Powers. All CM teams in attendance were also invited up on stage for the biggest CM family photo yet! (CMNSH stage left!)
After CMNYC we stopped by the shop of Steve Powers and the ICY Sign mechanics. You can see their work throughout NYC & Brooklyn as well as other cities worldwide.
Never miss a photo op with Tina & 2D Tina!
After such an amazing event it's hard to imagine the after party celebration could get any better. Leave it to this incredible CMHQ team to end the night in style. Hosted at Pioneer Works, we celebrated in the most amazing indoor & outdoor spaces in all of Brooklyn. Not to mention the incredible work of Dustin Yellin, also Founder & Director of Pioneer Works, was throughout the space! We felt so lucky to enjoy this space.
To put the literal icing on the cake—CreativeMornings celebrated the Happiest 6th Birthday Ever!!!
Cue all the dancing & happy tears you can stand! This trip was one of the best things about 2014 for us all.
I'm not sure if the CMHQ team knew what to expect going into this event & I find that even more special. We left with excitement, new ideas, fire in our bellies + we left educated on what we're a part of and a new desire to share the BIG picture of CM with our local community here in Nashville.
If you're a community member & you've read this far—we thank you! We Thank You for coming out to events & meeting new people—in person. We Thank You for sharing your notes with us & telling your friends about the experiences you've had attending CreativeMornings. Organizing CMNSH is a lot of hard work & hustle but it's the most fun I've ever had. If you want to know what that feels like, email us! We're always looking for partners & ambassadors to help take over the creative world!
100 MORE BIG THANK YOU'S to our CMHQ Team for convincing 180 people from around the world to purchase plane tickets, take time off work & come to NYC for an experience beyond what any of us had in mind. You keep our gears turning & it's safe to say we'll follow you anywhere! Especially if there's dancing—and coffee.

Our very own, Ben Derico, made the intro video to kick off the CreativeMornings Summit in Brooklyn last weekend! The video was concepted and directed by Ben, and made with the help of Eduardo Vea (aka NosE) and friends. Who's that adorable voice you ask? It's Matthew Hoffman's 6-year-old son, Dylan.
Special Thanks to Mike Skelly, Eric Branholm, Molly Raskin, Juan Camilo Moore, Kevin Oh, Kristin Field, Matthew Hoffman and CreativeMornings HQ.
Follow Ben to see what he's up to next!
This video was put together this past weekend at the first ever CreativeMornings summit in NYC, where all hosts from every chapter gathered to unite, brainstorm and inspire each other. If I could describe CreativeMornings in one word, it would be 'magical'.
