Creative Hosts was designed to make venues and experience providers easier to find through its Associates Directory, and to make concepts like 'experiential' and 'transformative' more accessible through a business peer group and 1:1 advice.
CH's curator, Kate Morel, has over thirty years of hands-on experience in experiential travel, hospitality, short-term rentals and personally facilitating retreats and workshops. As a consultant she has shaped niche business models and distinctive guest experiences, as a designer she has developed the kind of places that feature in high-end publications and television programmes. As a host and facilitator she has designed and facilitated both business and spiritual workshops, they have a different focus but aim for the same outcome - a transformation of some type.
Creative Hosts isn't a governing or official body, there are already enough of those, it's about creating a home of resources and support for people and businesses involved in creative events and spaces - hospitality, immersive and transformational experiences, the arts, crafts and wellbeing.
"I’ve wanted to create a place for shared thinking and honest collaboration for a while, something grounded in 'right intention and right action' and Creative Hosts is the result. As well as a resource and community, I also want it to uphold the authenticity at the heart of hosting and facilitating"
