The Tinkers’ Community
Chicken Soup for the soup
Imagine a space that blooms in the gap between your daily grind and office life. A place where you can nurture your creativity, focus on your wellbeing, recharge your spirit, and connect with kindred spirits – that’s The Tinkers’ Collective. Founded in early 2021 by Irtifa, who like many of us felt the isolation of lockdown, Tinkers started as a simple social media platform with a big heart – a desire to empower, educate, mentor and support creative entrepreneurs, especially the ones with little experience, training and/or finances; passionate, driven but struggling to be seen and heard.
We began with a free online platform created to promote the work of talented young artists. By the end of 2021, that virtual space had transformed into a real-life gathering of creatives yearning to share their skills with others. Soon, we were tinkering with ideas and curating experiences centered around creativity, recreation & communication, attracting hundreds of individuals looking to connect with like-minded people. Thus, the Community was born.
Today, The Tinkers' Collective has evolved into a wholesome 'third space,' nurturing minds, bodies, and spirits in a safe, inclusive environment. Over the past three years, we’ve made a positive impact in the lives of thousands through our 100+ wellbeing experiences embodying our commitment to a strong, empowering, and compassionate community that focuses on our members’ personal and professional growth.
