Where to begin? I feel like the luckiest person on earth these days. What started as a crazy idea, a distant “what if,” has spiraled upwards into a dream come true. I started
@ALLSHIPS as a way to build on land we own- a space on the internet that was wholly ours, to build tools and philosophies that can help us resist the algorithmic narrowing of our perspectives. When the world opened back up after lockdowns, we took this concept one step further and started hosting pop-ups and dining clubs and music shows and art workshops. That showed me that a need was out there- people want to connect more. People want to put down phones, and pick up conversations. The want, no- they *need* to be together in physical spaces, to break bread together, to look each other eye to eye, to share wine and ideas and hugs and laughter and long talks that last past midnight.
After a few years of our nomadic gatherings, we decided we could do so much more with our own location.
@lyonporter of
@urbancowboyhotels introduced us to
@oldgaragestudio and we formulated a plan to launch the
@ALLSHIPS Creator House. It’s been just over a month and we’ve already hosted some of our favorite events ever here. It feels like home. It feels like the future of
@ALLSHIPS and it feels damn good to see so many smiles radiating from the atmosphere and experience our team is creating with their intention and effort.
We’ve come so far but it’s still just the start. We have plans bigger than I could have imagined just a few months ago and I can’t wait to share them with you all here. If you are a creative who wants to get involved, DM me, if you are a brand or agency looking to work with us, please do the same. Let’s build a better world for creatives, together, because a rising tide raises ALLSHIPS. Thanks to our Head of Content
