Independents Hall Philadelphia

May 18 – Creative Directors Meetup @ Indy Hall

Filed under: Announcements, Community Support, Education/Workshops, Events, Independents Hall

Some months back, I was giving a tour of Indy Hall to Joe Rinaldi, an agent for Aquent focused on interactive design, development, and interactive project management. He’d been expressing interest in Indy Hall as a resource for some of the talent that he works with, but also loved what we were up to in terms of being a regional catalyst for encouraging creatives to interact with one another.

He’d remarked how much he’d like to come work from Indy Hall, and shared that a number of other people he works with who have offices to go to feel like they don’t have a reason to check out Indy Hall…and we agreed that it’d be valuable to find a way to give those people the opportunity they’d been looking for.

Joe’s been rallying a roster of Philadelphia’s finest Creative and Art Directors from agencies including Happy Cog, TMX, Tierney, Stick & Move, Vanguard, Comcast, Digitas, One Trick Pony, Red Tettemer, WellFed and more, for an evening of unique conversation about the challenges facing creative leaders.

Through this dialogue, he’s hoping to foster collaboration and continue to catalyze the creative community in Philadelphia to share the amazing work they are creating.

Seeing how nicely this fit with our mission, it was clear that we would want to host this event and give those creative directors a reason to visit!

The next meeting of this group will be at Indy Hall tomorrow, Tuesday May 18th at 6:30pm. Creative Directors of all levels of experience are encouraged to join for hearty discussion, pizza, and of course some drinks.

If you’re interested in attending, we ask that you drop Joe an e-mail to let him know the headcount for the refreshments. Otherwise, we’ll see you at Indy Hall! Holy moly that was fast! We actually filled up! If you’d like to be included in information about future events, you can drop us a line and we’ll pass word along to Joe.
