Our Partners

We’re proud to work with organisations that believe in creativity, accessibility and community.


Feature Partner – Growth Development Foundation

We’re proud to welcome Angie Simmons and the Growth Development Foundation as a Feature Partner for Strange Little Obsessions.

Angie is a holistic wellbeing guide and author of a year-long, neuroscience-backed journal. Through journaling, mindset work and grounded self-inquiry, she helps people build awareness, regulate their nervous system, and reconnect with who they truly are.

Her work explores both the light and shadow within us — something that resonates deeply with creative and alternative communities who aren’t afraid to look beneath the surface.

Through her courses, workshops and journal, Angie supports people in understanding themselves more deeply and moving forward with greater clarity, confidence and self-trust.

You’ll be able to meet Angie at the event, take part in her workshop, and explore her work in person.


Creative Partner – Asher Chan Photography

Asher is a photographer, comedian and horror filmmaker who has worked on over 20 horror film projects in her first year alone, quickly carving out her place within the indie horror scene.

At Strange Little Obsessions, Asher joins us as a Creative Partner, bringing her Dark Portrait Experience to life across the weekend.

This immersive setup invites attendees to step into a cinematic and horror environment, using authentic indie film props, moody lighting and two carefully crafted sets to create something far beyond a standard event photo.

Her contribution helps shape the atmosphere of SLO, offering attendees a chance to become part of the story… not just observe it.


Official Panel Area Sponsor – Glow Social


We’re proud to welcome Glow Social as the official sponsor of the Strange Little Obsessions Panel Area.

Glow Social supports small businesses with clarity, confidence and consistent marketing, helping brands show up online in a way that feels aligned, intentional and sustainable, without the overwhelm that so often comes with visibility.
As sponsor of the Panel Area, Glow Social is directly supporting the conversations, discussions and creative exchanges that sit at the heart of the event. From industry insights to storytelling sessions, this space is designed to elevate bold ideas and give creative voices the platform they deserve.

Together, we’re amplifying meaningful conversations within alternative and horror culture, while championing independent creators and growing businesses.
