About this Event
This quarterly Amplify Meetup is all about building authentic relationships through art. Designed as a relaxed and playful gathering, this session invites artists of all disciplines to step away from their day-to-day routines and lean into pure connection and creativity.
Together, we’ll explore how simple acts of making and sharing can spark new collaborations, fresh perspectives, and a stronger sense of belonging within our arts community.
Schedule:
- 8:00–8:15 | Welcome + Refreshments
- 8:15–8:45 | Artist Trading Cards (ATCs)Tap into your creativity by making mini works of art to exchange with other attendees. These small but meaningful pieces become tokens of connection and inspiration.
- 8:45–9:15 | Spark Story & Artist Speed-Share Networking
- 9:15–9:30 | Share-Outs + Community Calendar
Amplify Meetups are a year-round, quarterly series designed to nurture both the creative spirit and the creative network. This session puts joy, curiosity, and community at the center—reminding us that the act of showing up for one another can be just as transformative as the art itself.
