Cheers to Createscape Members
One of the best parts of being a long-time member of a coworking office is meeting new colleagues and bearing witness to fellow coworkers bootstrap a brand new business and watch it take off. We’ve seen it much more than a few times at Createscape. Here are some of the folks we’ve watched launch a business from scratch and while some may have outgrown their designated desks or small private offices here, we’re still very much connected with them through Austin’s professional community.

Staff Member Q&A with Riki Markowitz
Just about everyone at Createscape knows Riki. Besides being a part of our coworking community since nearly the beginning, she also has two cute little chihuahuas who come to work with her and is Createscape’s Content Manager who writes and edits so much of the newsletter and blog content you see. This time, we’re flipping the script and doing a Q&A with her to get to know the person behind the articles.
Member Q&A with Kirt and the Crew from The Little Gay Shop
The Little Gay Shop started as a pop-up. Co-owners, Kirt Reynolds and Justin Galicz, decided to open the store after moving to Austin from New York City. "When I got here, I was surprised at the lack of queer art and representation," said Kirt. The brick and mortar location on Airport Blvd was founded in 2019 and started welcoming customers in July 2020. Now, the queer art, books, and merch one-stop shop, exclusively created and designed by members of the LGBTQIA+ community, is thriving.
Createscape Wildlife Identification Guide
Members love that Createscape is conveniently close to the airport and downtown. But they also appreciate being surrounded by lots of grass, trees, and plenty of room to roam. In fact, we're in a residential section of East Austin that the Chronicle once called an "inner city paradise." Thanks to the abundance of green space, neighborhood gardens, parks, tree farms and plant nurseries in the area, we get a lot of wildlife visitors. Here are some of the creatures you're likely to spot on a typical day at the office.
