Casual Artists, Crafters & Creative Contributors
We’re an offline social club looking for casual live painters , visual artists, illustrators, crafters, and tinkerers who are comfortable working on their craft in a space where people can enjoy the process and the final product.
This is designed for hobbyists, beginner - intermediate creatives, and those interested in supporting the mixed media social concept.
It is not designed for experienced creatives seeking professional paid gig work.
It's casual, and more about your presence in the space and your craft as people chat, snack, and hangout.
As an atmospheric creative, you could work through a new piece, start a side project, or practice something you've been working on for a while.
Also you maintain ownership of your work and for anything we feature, we can discuss usage rights.
Alongside the music, and the relaxed vibe, it's the act of you creating art that is a highlight.
