Our Story
Nestled in the heart of Minnesota, Jenna, a young and ambitious and community-oriented entrepreneur, found herself longing for connection, creativity, and companionship.
With a desire to make new friends and bring people together, she set out to create the Twin Cities Collective, a dynamic platform that would not only foster friendships but also ignite a vibrant community of artists, entrepreneurs, and enthusiasts.
Jenna's journey began with humble intentions as she organized intimate gatherings in local spaces. These small-scale events were an opportunity for individuals to share their passions, stories, and aspirations. The response was overwhelmingly positive, and her vision quickly evolved beyond mere friendship into a vibrant network of like-minded souls.
As the Twin Cities Collective gained momentum, she recognized the need for a more expansive approach. From hosting events and workshops that catered to the diverse interests and skills of the community to creative workshops and business seminars to networking mixers and collaborative projects, the Twin Cities Collective became a hub of knowledge, growth, and collaboration.
Driven by the desire to celebrate the exceptional talents within the community, in 2017 TCC introduced the annual Best of Awards. These awards recognized and honored the outstanding achievements of local artists, entrepreneurs, and creatives, further fueling their aspirations and inspiring others within the Twin Cities Collective.
Today, the Twin Cities Collective stands as a testament the initial quest for friendship and connection. What began as a personal endeavor has blossomed into a thriving community hub, where individuals come together to forge friendships, develop skills, and celebrate the incredible talent within the Twin Cities.
Thanks to the community's unwavering dedication and the support of the community, the Twin Cities Collective continues to grow, nurturing a spirit of collaboration, inspiration, and lifelong friendships for all who join its ranks.
I have been a part of this group for a very short time and the impact has been so significant. Connecting with people in the creative community, seeing all of the talent and drive of so many others in itself has been its own reward not to mention the kindness, the collaboration and the general willingness to help one another. I've been blown away. I'm grateful for the work you do and the community that is responding to that work.
