Who organized?

 Go to the door in the back of the building. We meet in the basement. There will be a sign on the entrance. 

When you attend the meeting, bring any hand craft of your choice to work on. We have had things like carving, chain maille, knitting, jewelry making, sewing, drawing, painting, bead making, graphic design, needle felting, gocco printing, button making, doll making, and clothing deconstruction. Anything you want to make, bring with you. If your particular interest is not easily portable, come anyway, bring photos if you have them, and enjoy the lively conversation and creative atmosphere.

The meeting room may remind you of your grade school Art Room. It is equipped with large tables and chairs, and there is plenty of room to spread out. You are welcome to make whatever mess you can clean up effectively. The lighting is adequate for most work, but if your project is detailed, you may wish to bring a portable lamp. Electricity and water are available. Cookies, snacks and beverages are ~always~ welcome.

Conversation covers a wide range of artistic and business topics. Lots of networking takes place and collaberations do get sparked, so remember to bring a handful of business cards!

The Kennedy Arts Center has welcomed us with open arms. The building is conveniently located, with a city bus stop at the corner. The Center is actually an historic mansion, set back a bit from the street. The area is quiet, and parking is well lit.

Hobby Nights are:
Last Saturday of the month
6:00 - 9:00 PM
*FREE* (no dues of any kind)

    I love going to these meetings. Anyone who hasn't made it yet or is on the fence, you should totally go. We get stuff done and learn new things.

       To carve wood, to relax, and talk both art, and the business side of art with fellow creators. This is a pleasant and relaxed eve to get inspired by, and work within.
