Get ready to meet our second speaker taking the stage on September 4th – Axel Saizonou @axsaiz 🎤
As a poet who speaks directly from the heart, Axel possesses the kind of raw magnetism that reminds you why you’re an artist. He’s currently the founder and Co-CEO of Kultur Tires, a Canadian media and events production company based in Ottawa, so building connections is integral to his creative mission. Kultur Tires is home to @shareyourpiece , @613rnb and @deeplyrootedtalks , and each creative venture is grounded in community, storytelling and speaking with conviction.
With over a decade of experience in the entrepreneurial space, Axel enjoys the challenge of problem solving, methodically thinking through ideas, and bringing them to life: which is why he’s perfect for this event.
Get your ticket now, and hear the story of how Axel Saizonou built his creative life from the ground up.

Oh, how we missed you. But we are back baby!! Join us on September 4th for our third event of the year: From the Ground Up.
As creators, we often ask ourselves: how do you build something that lasts? If you’re worked on your art for a while, you’ve likely learned that big ideas don’t appear fully formed. They take time, patience, and a whole lot of showing up.
That’s what this event is all about. Our speakers will share stories of starting small, staying consistent, and finding solace in those slow, steady steps forward. It’s about focus, perseverance and dedication, even when it hurts. It’s about layout the first brick, then the next, even when the path has yet to take shape.
When: Thursday September 4th | 6 PM – 10 PM
Where: @saw_centre
Who: @brittneymegann from @socialsandstilettos , @szetoszeto & @marigolds.vtg (owners of @miammiam.general ) and @axsaiz from @shareyourpiece & @kulturties
Whether you’re building a business, a creative practice, or a life that feels like your own, this night is a reminder that real growth doesn’t happen overnight. It’s built from the ground up.
🎟️ Early bird tickets are $22 until August 21.
