Who We Are

The Tampa Bay Creative Network (formerly known as the St. Pete Creative Network) is the premier site for creative professionals in the Tampa Bay Area. We help creatives connect, share, discover events, find work - and help local companies locate our members quickly and easily whenever they have projects or positions requiring creative expertise.

Our group provides the following:

• Monthly events that enable local creatives to connect with one another, have a good time, network, socialize, learn and give back to the community
• An online member directory where members can create a profile with features including basic info, portfolio gallery, and a blog (among others). Members can then view other profiles to find people with similar creative interests.
• The ability for local employers to access our site and search our database of hundreds of local creatives FOR FREE. This enables them find the exact fit for their position or project while saving time and money.
• An online discussion forum where members can look for or advertise work, post questions for the group, and discuss industry-specific topics
• A newsletter that helps keep creatives connected with one another and with what's going on around town.
• The ability for members to form sub-groups of their own, through which they can pursue specific creative interests
• A calendar of group-related events
• Member galleries
• A live discussion page where members can take a break from their day and chat with fellow creatives

Ultimately, we hope our efforts will enhance the quality of life for local creatives and attract even more creative-minded people to the area. We hope this will happen not because we see the “creative class” as a means to an economic end, but because creativity is worth enhancing…for its own sake!
