Craft Content Nashville Expands With Year-Round Gatherings

On Saturday, April 9, more than 200 content enthusiasts, including two of us here at Startup Southerner, gathered at Nossi College of Art for Craft Content Nashville and once again had a great time. We were a media sponsor, and Nashville podcaster Clark Buckner was there all day to help capture the heart of this unconference: its speakers and participants. While a separate recap of the sessions is forthcoming, the 11 stories that Buckner created here in speaking with other content crafters give a bigger picture of who is part of the digital media landscape.

Perhaps it was only appropriate that the theme for this unconference was “Story” since the all-volunteer organizing crew announced a new chapter in the Craft Content Nashville story: year-round engagement, starting with a new happy hour especially for content creators.

“The reason for expanding into what we hope becomes monthly gatherings is to help keep the content community engaged throughout the year,” says Carla Swank, the co-founder of Craft Content and chief strategist for East South, a communication consulting firm. “We have a really strong community of podcasters, bloggers/authors, aspiring YouTube stars and other social media marketers, and photographers/designers here in Nashville and we wanted to create a space to come together to network and share ideas … and maybe even commiserate a bit.”
The first Craft Content Nashville Happy Hour will be 6-8 p.m. May 17 at Flyte, 718 Division Street. The organizers hope to establish the frequency of the events once they are able to understand the level of interest.
