WHAT WE DO:

  • Exchange Ideas And Mingle:  Meetups are the best place to get to know one another! Come hang out. 
  • Illustration prompts: Prompts will be announced  a month before the meeting. Then we will critique each other’s illustration during the meeting. The goal is to develop your portfolio.
