About This Event
CU Creators Collective: Second Edition at Hotel Royer
Join us for a cocktail-forward evening of community, connection, and creative reflection.
We are heading to the historic Hotel Royer, Tapestry Collection by Hilton for our February meetup. After the incredible energy of our first event, we’re keeping the momentum going by popping up in one of Urbana’s most storied architectural gems.
This isn’t your typical, daunting networking event. We’ve designed the Creators Collective to be a space where "community over competition" isn't just a phrase, but an experience. Whether you are an aspiring creator, an established entrepreneur, or a side-hustler looking for your "people," there is a seat for you at the table.
