To celebrate, KW Creators is throwing back to one of the most iconic eras in gaming!
Join us for a day of 2000s nostalgia, creators, games, and interactive experiences inspired by the era of motion controls, Mii Characters, and family game nights.

Thanks to Good Time Games , we’ll have Wii gaming stations running throughout the event with classic favorites and plenty of multiplayer games to jump into with your friends!

📅 Saturday, November 21st
🕖 1PM - 8PM
📍 Vector Space, 187 King St S Unit 106, Waterloo, ON N2L 0A5 Vector Space

🎉 Two years of KW Creators!

It’s hard to believe it’s already been two years since we opened the doors to our very first event.

What started as a small idea has grown into markets, festivals, screenings, workshops, collaborations, and a community of creators and attendees that continues to surprise us. Along the way, we’ve tried new formats, taken plenty of chances, and learned something from every event we’ve put together.

Swipe through for a look back at some of the highlights from year two, along with a few of the things these events taught us.

Most importantly, thank you to everyone who has helped make KW Creators what it is. To the creators, attendees, collaborators, and everyone who has shared our work along the way, we couldn’t have done it without you.

Year three, let’s go! 🎉

amber ☆〜（ゝ。∂） is a woman owned small business that sells handmade beaded accessories. Each piece is unique and designed by me! This business started out just as a hobby but after seeing how happy my products can make people, I knew it was something I wanted to continue doing. Each piece is designed to bring happiness into other people’s lives. In this scary world, sometimes the small things are truly the most important to keep us going.
