AAF CreativeZen was born out of a desire for the local AAF Greater Fort Lauderdale & the Palm Beaches chapter of the American Advertising Federation & Choose954 to inspire and engage with our local creative community. Every Creative Zen event includes complimentary coffee and breakfast bites before a short inspiring and thought provoking talk during the second Friday morning of the month. All Creative Zen events are free of charge and open to the community, being creative or a member of the Advertising Federation is not required! We hope you find the inspiration you're looking for through these stories as we did, which is why we pay it back and pay it forward by continuing these events for FREE! #AAFCreativeZen

This month we bring you Cartoonist & Community Activist Doug Meyers who believes NOW is the time to pull the shiny lever on your creativity.
“It wasn’t until I got to my 40’s when I finally saw it clearly: There’s never going to be a perfect time to switch gears and tackle my ambition. This desire to create cartoons, I always thought it was weird and crazy. Like, maybe I should ignore it and be a rental car washer; a door-to-door political campaign worker; an apartment manager or a market analyst. You know, be in a ‘real job.’”
All those “real jobs,” he says, were actually training him for his dream job of running a cartoon studio.
SkyVengers Cartoon is currently producing the cartoon series Ravens Of Mars, which is based on his book. The studio is located in Cincinnati, Ohio.
In this talk, Doug will discuss the importance of creativity, where he believes it originates. He’ll share tips and exercises that can help you connect to creativity.
Creativity, he believes, is an ability that must be conditioned. Much like any other ability.
“There is an endless flow of creative thought. You can channel it like energy. All you have to do is be receptive to it and it will flow through you like a river.”
Join Doug for this engaging talk. Learn some fun ways to connect with creativity. And discover how it can help you- no matter what field you’re in.
