The Shift is a monthly gathering for Black creatives who want more than visibility. It is a space to show up honestly, exchange insight, and examine how we move through our work and our industry.
Created under Black Creatives, The Shift focuses on community and education, and centers conversation around lived experiences.
Each month we explore the keys to creativity and community, recognizing that when we change what we bring into the room, we change what becomes possible.
Seats are intentionally limited to keep the experience focused and meaningful. Join us and be part of the shift.
Second Wednesdays

Our Next Shift: Wednesday, June 10
Who The Shift Is For | The Shift is for anyone who sees themselves as a creative and is seeking meaningful community. We center those working in creative industries and those who collaborate alongside us, but this space is open to all who value creativity, growth, and shared learning.
What to Expect | Each Shift is intentionally designed to be intimate and participatory. You can expect thoughtful conversation, honest reflection, and practical insight you can carry back into your work. More than anything, you can expect to be in a room where you are not the only one navigating this journey. You will leave with new tools, new perspective, and stronger connection.

JUNE 2026
theShift + Return
The conversations continue.
Once a quarter, we put the mic down and pull up a chair.
No speaker. No keynote. Just the community, the concepts, and the conversation.
This month we return to the topics that have moved us — Evolution, Duality, and Community. Not to recap, but to go deeper. To sit with what's still unresolved, share what's stayed with us, and talk honestly about what these conversations mean for us as Black creatives navigating this world and this industry.
theShift + Return is our quarterly space to reflect, discuss, and decide together where we go from here.
Every voice belongs here. Whether you've been with us since the beginning or you're walking through the door for the first time, there's a seat at the table and a place in the conversation.
Doors open at 6:30pm.
The Shift begins at 7:00pm.
Seats are limited.
