What the heck is Creative Social Club?

The Creative Social Club is exactly what it sounds like… a social club for creatives! 🤩

The Creative Social Club is a collective of creative entrepreneurs and hobbyists in Central Iowa that come together to connect, collaborate, create, and grow in their creative endeavors.

Whether you are a full-time creative entrepreneur or have an interest in starting your own gig, this is the place for you and we can’t wait to help you grow!

MEET THE CO-FOUNDERS

Maren & Libby

Hi Friends! We are Maren & Libby—college roommates turned best friends, turned business partners. We started out as strangers sharing a dorm room, but between our shared interests of makeup, Friends, Fetty Wap (it was 2015, people), and so much more…we clicked almost instantly.

One reason our friendship has remained so strong for a decade is our ability to support, encourage, and challenge each other to take steps in the direction of things we desire. In 2023, Libby took the leap to become a full-time brand designer through her business, With Love, Libby. Maren launched The Clarity Buzz, a life + business coaching business in 2025.

Together, we started the Creative Social Club to bring together creative entrepreneurs after identifying a gap in the networking space. We could not be more excited to challenge the ways of traditional corporate events and make room for a new way to network!

Kind Words from CSC Attendees

“CSC provides a fantastic opportunity to connect with fellow creatives and engage in collaborative creative activities. The events give me the opportunity to explore locations I hadn’t visited before.”

Lupe, Lupe’s Flowers

“Creative Social Club events are SO fun! It’s a very laid-back atmosphere and takes a lot of the awkwardness out of socializing and making connections with other creatives and small businesses.”

Rowan, Of Moss and Flames
