ABOUT THE EVENT:

The Club SF, in partnership with The One Club for Creativity and Pereira O’Dell, invites you to Make It SF — an event dedicated to bringing San Francisco’s creative community together. Creativity has long been at the heart of this city, and this gathering is an opportunity to connect, share ideas, and look ahead.

After working with The One Club for Portfolio Night 2024, The Club SF saw firsthand the immense talent, work, and connections that thrive in this community. This event builds on that experience, creating a space for creatives across disciplines to come together and explore what’s next. While all are welcome, we’re especially focused on uplifting and connecting emerging talent — the next generation of designers, writers, marketers, technologists, and artists shaping the industry.

Hear from influential speakers like Kat Gordon on creative resilience and Shihan Zhang on speculative design. Take part in a Q&A panel on the future of San Francisco’s creative landscape. Connect with fellow creatives, industry veterans, and visionaries in a setting designed for real conversations and collaboration. Experience how creativity continues to shape the city and beyond.

San Francisco’s creative community has always been strong — this is a chance to celebrate it and keep it growing.

MAKE IT SF | MEET OUR SPEAKERS

Kat Gordon

Kat Gordon is the visionary behind The 3% Movement. Started as a passion project to spotlight a huge business opportunity in advertising — the lack of female creative leadership and its impact on connecting with an overwhelmingly female marketplace — the 3% Movement has grown exponentially since its 2012 launch: hosting events in 17 cities globally, and offering consulting and certification programs that amplify creative cultures. In that time, the number of female creative directors in the U.S. has risen from 3% to 29%.

She was named one of “30 Most Creative Women in Advertising” by BusinessInsider in 2016, Visionary of the Year from Advertising Age in 2018, and one of “Forty Over 40” women disrupting the world in 2014.

Shihan Zang

Drawing on a systematic and cultural lens, Shihan’s works explore the possibilities of emerging technologies and extrapolate world conditions to address Anthropocene challenges, fostering fresh perspectives and 'more-than-human' reflections, through immersive storytelling and tangible artifacts.  

As the Founder of alterR. Studio and Principal at alter+, she has worked with a diverse array of organizations such as NEW INC, SPACE10, Amazon, Hyundai Studio, and the Institute for the Future. She also serves as an Adjunct Professor at Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts and is a Certified Foresight Professional at the Global Foresight Advisory Council.
