Meet in the Arts

Meet in the Arts

From Romantic Food+Cooking+Drink+Art
4.2

[Which art style are you? Vote and see who shares your lane.](https://app.favr.town/polls/s_378XeL85R4csGQ?r=@lovemaze) Our preferences in art reveal more about us than we often realize. Long before personality traits were formally categorized, psychologists studied personality differences through individuals' ratings of various paintings. If you find yourself drawn to the same piece of artwork, there's a strong chance you share a deep connection. Meet in the museum for an excursion. Sign up on [favr.town](https://favr.town/) and predict your next art buddy before you meet. Find out if you're right when you meet onsite. Or, if you fancy other museums, pin them at times that work for you on [favr.town](https://favr.town/) and discover who you might meet there. Note: This is a [Favr.town](http://favr.town/) member exclusive event. [Join](https://favr.town/events/meet-and-shop-trader-joes-trader-joes-2026-06-15-17-00) [[https://favr.town](https://favr.town/) ] Hint: Fans of abstract art tend to be creative, pop art lovers are often optimistic, impressionism enthusiasts are more likely to be conscientious, and those who prefer traditional art tend to be, well, more traditional. Something extra: Why do these traits matter? See how [optimism](https://favr.town/blog/the-power-of-optimism-in-relationships-how-a-positive-outlook-strengthens-resilience-emotional-health-and-lasting-love-2025-11-20), [conscientiousness](https://favr.town/blog/how-responsibility-and-reliability-build-trust-and-lasting-love-2026-04-19), [traditional values](https://favr.town/blog/prioritizing-family-values-for-lasting-commitment-and-love-2025-12-17), and [excitement](https://favr.town/blog/how-novelty-play-and-shared-adventure-keep-love-alive-2025-12-14) influence relationships. You can also measure how your sense of [optimism](https://app.favr.town/we?t=1&s=1&b=OPTIMISTIC), [conscientiousness](https://app.favr.town/we?t=1&s=2&b=CONSCIENTIOUS), [traditional values](https://app.favr.town/we?t=1&s=2&b=TRADITIONAL), and [excitement](https://app.favr.town/we?t=1&s=2&b=EXCITING) stack up against others.

From Creative Women Entrepreneurs in NYC
4.8

**RSVP on Luma here:** [https://luma.com/ahhsickm](https://luma.com/ahhsickm) Join the Creative Women Entrepreneurs community for our next Creative Power Hour, a 60-minute, high-impact virtual session designed to help you level up your creative business... fast! This month, we're joined by Annamarie Marino, ADHD & Executive Function Coach and Board-Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, for a conversation about why so many creative entrepreneurs think differently and how to build a business around how your brain actually works, not against it. ​ Whether you have ADHD, suspect you might, or simply find yourself overflowing with ideas while struggling with follow-through, overwhelm, prioritization, or burnout, this session will help you better understand the connection between creativity, entrepreneurship, and executive functioning. **RSVP on Luma here:** [https://luma.com/ahhsickm](https://luma.com/ahhsickm) **​** **What You'll Learn:** * ​Why so many creative entrepreneurs share similar thinking patterns, with or without an ADHD diagnosis. * ​The "Entrepreneur's Paradox": how your greatest strengths can also create your biggest business challenges. * ​What executive functions are, and why they often matter more than motivation or intelligence when it comes to getting things done. * ​Why traditional productivity advice doesn't work for everyone, and what to do instead. * ​Practical, ADHD-friendly systems that reduce overwhelm, improve follow-through, and help you build a more sustainable creative business. **​**You'll leave with: * ​A better understanding of your own creative thinking style. * ​Greater self-compassion around the challenges of entrepreneurship. * ​A simple framework for building a business that supports your strengths, rather than fighting against them. **​Our session will be hosted live on Zoom, and the link will be shared with confirmed RSVPs one hour prior to the session.** **​**Can't make the session live? RSVP anyway and we'll share the replay. ​ **Who This Is For:** ​If you're a woman or femme freelancer, creative, or founder earning income from your creativity or expertise, this session is for you. ​Whether you've been diagnosed with ADHD, suspect you may have it, or simply find yourself struggling with focus, follow-through, and overwhelm while running your business, you'll leave with practical insights you can apply right away. ​We welcome artists, makers, designers, writers, photographers, filmmakers, product creators, event planners, marketers, educators, musicians, and other creative entrepreneurs. **​About Our Presenter: Annamarie Marino** ​Annamarie Marino is a Board-Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, Certified Life Coach, and ADHD & Executive Function Coach who brings a unique blend of clinical expertise, compassion, and lived experience. Diagnosed with ADHD later in life, she understands firsthand the challenges of navigating overwhelm, executive dysfunction, and entrepreneurship with an ADHD brain. ​Through her signature ADHD Success Program, Annamarie helps adults move from overwhelm to clarity with practical strategies that build confidence, improve executive functioning, and create sustainable success. **​Learn more about Annamarie [here](https://newjerseycoachingservices.com/?utm_source=luma).** **RSVP on Luma here:** [https://luma.com/ahhsickm](https://luma.com/ahhsickm) **​About Creative Women Entrepreneurs** **​**Creative Women Entrepreneurs is a NYC-based community for women building creative businesses founded by [Sam Popp](http://www.linkedin.com/in/sampoppnyc?utm_source=luma). ​We host events designed for real connection, from walks and co-working sessions to workshops and gatherings that go beyond traditional networking. **​**Check out [our calendar on Luma](https://luma.com/creativewomenentrepreneurs) to view our upcoming events. **RSVP on Luma here:** [https://luma.com/ahhsickm](https://luma.com/ahhsickm)
