Creative Thinkers meet and greet our new and old members with a few rounds of beers

This is also a special evening because we are welcoming Sail Ho Studio.

Sail Ho Studio is developing an app for this exhibition. Once you download it, when you point your phone to one of the art work. It will come to life on your phone and move.

Sail Ho Studio is an illustration and motion design collective founded in 2018 by five designers, living across Europe who believe in the power of collaboration and are strongly convinced that a good team can deliver better work than a single professional. That’s why after many years spent working independently for companies and international agencies, they decided to set a new course together. Although they have only just begun this journey together, this is just the natural evolution of a collaboration that started about five years ago with Matteo, the motion designer, who has been the first bridge between the team. 

Their art will be on display for the newt 6 weeks in The Thinking Hut Oost (Mauritskade 55C). So come and join us for a fun and happy evening! 

When : Thursday 29th of November

 Time : From 6pm

Price: One free beverage! 

6 Steps to Becoming Unstoppable - (Because we can have it all and I will show you how!) - 90Mins Masterclass 

“I’m stuck, I’m lost, I'm tired, I don’t know who I am anymore, Is this really it?”……sound familiar? 

If you are a new or aspiring entrepreneur or creative who knows that they want to achieve something big with a business that they are passionate about, yet are struggling with how to make “it” all happen and are confused as to what “it” even really looks like….then I have a message for you.
 

Overwhelm and a lack of clarity can quickly crush your confidence as a new entrepreneur.
In fact, overwhelm and a lack of clarity are the main reason so many women with such a huge potential never see their business vision through to full fruition.

This is a masterclass designed to enable entrepreneurs and creatives by teaching them the dynamics of Mind, Brain and Self. During this Masterclass you will learn the fundamentals needed to transform mindset into a tool that works for you instead of against you. With these 6 fundamentals, you will understand the dynamics and have enough food for thought to help you take those first steps in order to move forward and thrive. 

Ines Gaston, Trained Psychologist, has designed a program for creatives and entrepreneurs looking for ways to upscale their business. She will be sharing her personal experiences and expertise so you can take action TODAY. . Known for her pragmatic and practical approach, energy and scientific know-how, Ines Gaston has been invited to both national as well as international stages both as speaker as well as a coach. She serves the brave and unconventional minds by supporting them in breaking through inner blocks so they claim the life and business they envisioned for themselves.

In this 90min Masterclass you will learn:

▫ The relationship between mind and behaviour and understand how these dynamics will help you gain control, manage and regain energy so you can accelerate both professionally as well as personal.
▫ Why Self-Image is a game changer and why it is important to embrace the adventure of being you.
▫ Why the right environment is key and how it can make you move faster
▫ Things you can do today to make you move forward.
 

Creative Thinkers meet and greet our new and old members in a chilled environment - there will be beers!

This is also a special evening because we are welcoming Chiara Barraco, our latest Artist exhibiting her photography in the space. 

About her photography: "People are the most fascinating subject to me. I love to catch the fleeting, spontaneous moments - and the best way to do this is to get as close as possible to the scene, the people, and the moment, while remaining invisible as an observer. My greatest skill is to allow my subjects to feel comfortable, natural, and relaxed - allowing me to capture the moment in its purest form. My style is documentary (I studied photojournalism in Rome) and I apply this same intimate yet indiscernible point of view to my subjects to create the most intimate, funny, natural and honest pictures I can. ​"

Chiara will be exposing her work called Mathab, as the Iranian girl they depict - this work shows the two daily realities, Rome and Tehran. Mahtab shows us both realities: on one side, the aseptic offices of the university, studying at her friends' homes, the nights out; on the other side, the return to her family, the hours in the car searching for streets, feeling like a tourist in her own city, and again the nights out sleeping at her friends' homes. Two realities, the Roman and the Iranian, that you might expect to be very different, full of different scenaries and lifestyles. You imagine Tehran with exotic landscapes, Persian-inspired decor, and women in chador or veiled, in contrast to Rome's short skirts, ancient architecture and western houses. On the contrary - the two worlds are mixed and confused, to the point that it is difficult to comprehend the border, especially inside the home; east and west, different clothing, routines and lifestyles become impossible to separate. 

If you are intesrested in photography you cannot miss the exhibit and meet Chiara  on the 15th of November, as she will also talk to those who attend about the basis of photography plus share with us her personal experience in the matter. A must-come relaxed event surrounded by beautiful and inspiring photograpy.
