Grab a cup of cocoa and join us by the "fire"...

Fireside Chats are casual and cozy presentations (complete with hot chocolate) to learn about artist members and their artistic journeys.

These events are low pressure and aim to shine a light on the often non-linear and inspiring journeys of our membership. Everyone has a unique creative path and when we take the time to hear other's stories, we can find a renewed sense of joy and purpose.
