Boulder Creative Expo & Spring Schmoozer Debuts

The Boulder County Film Commission is launching a first-of-its-kind event connecting Boulder’s creative sector with the broader business community: the Boulder Creative Expo & Spring Schmoozer, on Wednesday, May 27, 2026, from 4:00–7:00 p.m. at the Boulder JCC. 

Blending the proven success of the Boulder County Film Commission’s popular Schmoozer series with a new Expo format, the event will spotlight Boulder’s growing digital creative industry—from filmmakers and animators to graphic designers and production services—while creating new pathways for business collaboration. 

The Boulder Creative Expo represents a significant evolution in how Boulder connects its creative talent with employers, clients, and collaborators. For the first time, businesses from across the region will have a dedicated opportunity to directly engage with the people and companies powering Boulder’s creative economy. 

“The Boulder Creative Expo is about connecting industries in a meaningful way,” said Boulder County Film Commissioner Bruce Borowsky. “With the enthusiastic support of the Boulder Chamber, we’re bringing together the incredible talent within our digital creative sector and the businesses that need those skills to grow, compete, and tell their stories.” 

The event expands on the Schmoozer’s strong networking foundation by introducing a structured showcase where creatives can present their work and businesses can discover local talent. The Schmoozer brand has become a cornerstone of Boulder’s creative networking scene—regularly drawing filmmakers, artists, and industry professionals for collaboration and connection. Now, with the addition of the Expo to the Spring Schmoozer, the Film Commission is expanding that impact—creating a structured showcase where creative professionals can present their services, demonstrate their work, and build relationships with potential clients and partners. 

Exhibitors will include a range of digital creative companies, such as: 

• Video production and post-production studios 
• Animation and motion graphics firms 
• Marketing and branded content agencies 
• Podcast and audio production companies 
• Freelance cinematographers, editors, and graphic and web designers 

Attendees will experience: 

• A curated expo of local digital creatives and production services 
• Brief on-stage programming highlighting industry opportunities 
• High-impact networking designed to spark business connections 

The event is free to attend, with advance registration required.
