Florida Creativity Conference

A big THANK YOU to Buddy’s Bagels 🥯

We’re so grateful for your generous donation of bagels to help kick off our mornings at the Florida Creativity Conference.

There’s nothing like starting the day with great food and even better energy — and your bagels were the perfect way to fuel our community of creative thinkers.

We especially appreciate your continued support as a two-time donor — it truly means a lot to us and our participants.

Thank you, Buddy’s, for being part of the FLCC experience!

A big THANK YOU to Third Ear Conflict Resolution!

We’re incredibly grateful for the generous donation of sticky note pads and flags — such a simple tool, but such a powerful part of the creative process.

Because of this contribution, every single participant at the Florida Creativity Conference received a set in their conference bag — and they were put to great use all week long.

From ideation to collaboration to capturing those “aha” moments, these tools supported the kind of hands-on, innovative work that defines FLCC.

Thank you, Third Ear Conflict Resolution, for helping bring creativity to life in such a tangible way. Your support made a difference for every participant in the room.

Pre-Conference Workshop Spotlight

Session Lab: Rapid Prototyping to Design Your Own Tools
with Nancylyn Hogarty

Great facilitation doesn’t happen by accident — it’s designed with intention.

In this hands-on pre-conference workshop, you’ll apply the Creative Problem Solving process directly to facilitation design. Together, we’ll explore the factors that influence timing, tool selection, flow, and participant engagement — then immediately put those insights into action.

Using rapid prototyping, you’ll:
✨ Experiment with new activity ideas
✨ Co-create and test custom tools
✨ Refine session structures in real time
✨ Share insights and iterate with peers

This is not theory. This is building.

You’ll leave with practical tools you’ve helped shape — and a repeatable approach for designing bespoke sessions that work in any context.
💥 Add this workshop for just $100
💥 Or attend it a la carte

Join us at the 23rd Annual Florida Creativity Conference at Ringling College of Art and Design.

Keynote Spotlight 🔥

Creative Theft: Stealing Brilliance from Unexpected Places
with Praschant Anilkumar

What if you could think as radically as Pablo Picasso?

What if the breakthrough you’re looking for isn’t inside your industry… but far outside it?

In this high-energy, interactive keynote, Praschant Anilkumar will introduce frameworks inspired by Picasso’s creative process — showing you how to:
✨ Recognize powerful patterns
✨ Hijack perspectives from unexpected places
✨ Apply bold thinking directly to your own challenges

Through hands-on exercises, you won’t just hear about creativity — you’ll practice it.

You’ll leave with practical tools, fresh angles, and full permission to steal strategically.

📅 March 11–14
📍 Ringling College of Art and Design

This is not a sit-back keynote.
This is creative disruption.

FLCC is almost here — and you can join us for just one day.

Not everyone can commit to four days.
That’s why one-day tickets start at $200.

Come for the day and:
✨ Learn in hands-on, immersive sessions
✨ Create meaningful community
✨ Connect with bold, creative thinkers
✨ Enjoy light breakfast, lunch, and snacks (included!)

It’s not a lecture-style conference. It’s active. Engaging. Energizing.
Choose the day that fits your schedule and step into the experience.
