Creatology Residency Week Celebrates Creatives in Tampa Bay

Creatology Residency Week is returning for its 5th year, bringing a six-day creative experience to Tampa Bay from Monday, July 6, through Saturday, July 11, 2026. What began as a two-day creative conference has grown into a full residency-style week built for artists, entrepreneurs, musicians, designers, writers, storytellers, and creatives looking for community.

Founded by Janelle “J’Nelle” Richardson, Creatology was created from a personal understanding of how isolating the creative journey can feel. The experience is rooted in one core belief: “Creatives don’t let other creatives create alone,” giving attendees a space for connection, collaboration, healing, learning, and growth.
