The day starts tonight
Creativity starts when you feel in the mood; it’s on its own clock. But for most creatives, that mood doesn’t strike until after the sun goes down. For all the night-time dreamers who sacrifice sleep for the betterment of their craft - artists, musicians, and writers - we invite you to take a walk on the darker side.
The Midnight Flow
A new line of Stumptown Coffee brewed specifically for late-night creatives. Inspired by the possibilities of nighttime, these all-black cold brew cans reveal their true colors when the sun goes down.
The stumping ground
Sometimes it’s easier to tap into creativity when it’s all around you. This warehouse space allows creatives to work throughout the night in an environment suited for their artistic needs. Painting galleries, recording studios, and writing workshops are just a few stations that can be found within the doors of the Stumping Ground - only open from sundown to sunup.
The stump truck
A late-night food truck serving up tasty tapas and Midnight Flow cold brews. Keep your eyes and ears open, you never know when the Stump Truck will be traveling through your neighborhood.
Light up the night
Just like creatives, our line of Midnight Flow cold brews light up the night. When the sun goes down, these all black cans glow in the dark - revealing the creativity of nighttime. Head to your nearest 24/7 convenience store and look for the fridge that’s lightening up the aisles.
Stumptown Social
To encourage consumers to create with the night, we will only post on social media from sundown to sunup. Each post will include a creative prompt targeted to artists, musicians, and writers. Creatives must make an original piece with specific themes included from the prompts and tag Stumptown in their post. At sunrise, we will choose a winner and send them a free 12 pack of Midnight Flow cold brew.
Stories after sundown
Introducing Stories After Sundown. A podcast that invites artists, musicians, and writers to share their work, discuss their creative process, and lend insights as to how the nighttime enhances their creativity. Head to Spotify and start listening today.
Chasing the night
We’re giving select creatives a major dose of darkness. Welcome to Chasing the Night, a creative retreat hosted in Alaska during the polar night. We will gather upcoming and trending artists, musicians, and writers to create in this month-long night.
The work made by these creatives will be put on display at a pop-up museum in Portland, Oregon once they return home.
