Cre8con

The Portland Creative Conference is under new management and will have its own social channels. Cre8con is an interdisciplinary exploration and celebration of the creative process across various creative industries. The conference features keynote presentations from leading creatives who reveal their work and talk about their process, secrets, influences and inspirations. It is an opportunity for attendees to get inside the heads of visionaries who are generating original and effective ideas for fun & profit and to be inspired in entirely new ways, viewing their own world with a fresh perspective as a result. The original conference was founded by Will Vinton and ran throughout the 90′s and after 7 years away was brought back in 2008 by event Chairman Steve Gehlen as a non-profit fundraiser for arts education. The event is produced on behalf of the non-profit fiscal agent, Keeping the Arts, a public charity that raises money to support arts education in Oregon.
