Malcolm K. Darrell

Hi, I'm Malcolm K. Darrell — a Creative Director, Producer, Consultant, Curator, and Creative Strategist, passionate about crafting experiences that inspire, connect, and transform.​

​

For more than 25 years, I’ve been helping brands, organizations, and communities bring bold ideas to life — producing live, immersive, and unforgettable experiences from Los Angeles to New York and everywhere in between. I earned my B.A. from the University of California, Berkeley and my M.F.A. from Yale University, and I’m passionate about blending creative excellence with strategic vision.

​

I'm a global thinker with a deeply local heart — driven by a genuine love for humanity and a belief that storytelling can bridge cultures, spark connection, and ignite lasting change.

​

Recenty, as Director of Experiences for Nearest Green Distillery—the #7 most visited distillery in the world and the home of Uncle Nearest Premium Whiskey—Malcolm transformed brand vision into unforgettable cultural moments. He architected and produced the company’s flagship events. As creative producer, he led cross-functional teams in partnership with national media brands, conservation organizations, universities, and high-net-worth stakeholders to deliver experiences recognized as world-class benchmarks in the industry.

​

Rooted in faith, fueled by vision, and committed to excellence, I live in Tennessee with my wife and children — and when I'm not dreaming up creative experiences, you can usually find me enjoying something infused with butter, sugar, and cinnamon.
