Create. Connect. Collaborate.

Welcome

To Your Creative Hub

Not another social club.

SOBI is where creativity and community collide. We’re a pop-up event brand and creative hub for artists, dreamers, and doers who believe in the power of showing up for one another. For us, “community” isn’t just a feel-good word; it’s the foundation. It means opening doors, sharing resources, and creating spaces where everyone feels seen and supported.

We’re not here to play by the rules of traditional social clubs or exclusive creative circles. Instead, we’re flipping the script. No gatekeeping. No cliques. Just space for genuine connection, accessibility, and collaboration across all backgrounds and disciplines. Read more…
