Want a Seat At The Table?
At the Table is a private gathering for creative leaders, business executives, entrepreneurs, and changemakers — hosted by Justin Ahrens of Rule29 and Brian MacDonald of Wonderkind Studios.
It’s not a panel or a performance.
At The Table is a curated, invite-only evening of handcrafted drinks and powerful conversations designed to challenge assumptions, spark ideas, and connect people who care about doing meaningful work.
Over bourbon or a mocktail, we dive into unscripted dialogue around leadership, creativity, innovation, and purpose. The format is intentionally loose. The environment is intimate. And the conversations are as rich as the drinks in your glass.
If that sounds like your kind of night, we’d love to consider you for a future gathering.
Led by Curiosity.
Fueled by Experience.
At the heart of At the Table are your hosts, Justin Ahrens (Rule29) and Brian MacDonald (Wonderkind Studios) — two seasoned creative and business minds who know how to spark real conversation. With decades of experience across branding, innovation, and storytelling, they don’t dominate the evening — they guide it.
Their role is to ask the right questions, listen deeply, and create space where ideas can flow freely. Each gathering is shaped by the people in the room and the energy of the moment. No slides. No scripts. Just thoughtful dialogue, shared experience, and new perspectives waiting to be uncovered.
