Creative Perk

All day I April 11-12

Step into the cozy vibes of a neighborhood coffeehouse—right here at CDM! ☕✨

Since the 1920s, coffeehouses have been buzzing with creativity as gathering places for poets, musicians, and artists of all kinds. At Creative Perk, we’re honoring that tradition by turning Spark Central into a hub for expression, inspiration, and community.

🎤 Kids and guests of all ages are invited to share their talents at our Open Mic.
📝 Listen in on poetry readings.
☕ Purchase a cup of local brew or hot chocolate from Tailwind Coffee.
🎨 Create your own coffee-inspired art in Creation Station.

Chattanooga loves its coffee shops, so let’s celebrate them together—with art, music, and a warm cup in hand. 💛

Included with General Admission.
