Creative Women Space is the first women’s creative space in Ukraine, which works on the model of social entrepreneurship and directs the earned funds to projects to develop women in art and business. “As a rule, we held various events for women organized by our partners and us. We are now deprived of our usual ways of earning. Some came from paid events, some came from a sublease, and we also had catering. It worked quite well for us. Most often, companies that rented space from us ordered it.” In the new realities, the team is considering new forms of existence in the online environment. We are now considering the format of delivering healthy and wholesome food. The offline arrangement was also valuable for us because it was a community, networking, and pleasant acquaintances. There are very different women in our audience: feminists, transgender people, very different women. It is a community that needs a safe space. Unfortunately, online sites cannot provide this.
