Absolutely. Members receive free or discounted admission to events, but most Creative Alliance events are open to the public.

Creative Alliance Members may submit events to the website. The event calendar is geared towards a peer-to-peer audience, rather than a broader commercial audience. Creative Alliance will gladly post workshops, networking events, speakers, meetups and other professional development events in the area. Members are also encouraged to submit a discount to their own events for fellow Creative Alliance Members (we call these “Discounted Community Activities”).
