Building an audience as an independent creator can feel like shouting into the void. Algorithm shifts, pay-to-play promotion, and the pressure to go viral often leave us spending more time tweaking social strategy than actually making art.
If you’re ready to cut through the noise and build an online presence that actually drives results, join us for our next monthly Story Lab in-person gathering at Planet X Studios.
We are excited to welcome guest speaker Janie Ho for a practical, actionable masterclass on navigating social and digital channels—even if you’re starting from zero.
Location: Planet X Studios | 180 Maspeth Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11211
Format: Presentation + Q&A + Open Networking (Lite bites & beverages provided)
Attendance: Free RSVP required (Limited to the first 40 attendees)
