Olivia admits that her own love of meeting, greeting and interacting with creative people drove her passion to head up this local chapter.

CreativeMornings is a national breakfast lecture series with local chapters that host free, monthly meetups with revolving themes, speakers and venues.

And thanks to resident Olivia Lehman, Fort Wayne became an official part of the network this past January.

The concept is deceptively simple. One Friday a month, attendees are invited to gather to enjoy fresh coffee, friendly people, and an international array of breakfast foods, while learning about a new and thought provoking topic.

Always ready to find out what the local creatives are up to, WBOI's Julia Meek sat down with Lehman to discuss this concept's scope and popularity, as well as her personal motivation for sharing it with the community.
