Connection: Finding Your Creative Community
Begins the 3C's series
Connect. Converse. Create.
Each session will have a focus on one particular C, but don’t worry, we promise to deliver all 3C’s in each InReach! This year at the Ottawa Art Gallery, 44.4 will cultivate Connections so you can find your supportive arts community by beginning Conversations that will invigorate your creative life, all while Creating small works reflective of our discussions.
The WHY: Connect with Ottawa creatives who want to:
- help with regular art critiques so no one gets stuck
- collaborate in art making
- reduce awkwardness by standing together at a Vernissage
- amuse with witty remarks when listening to the same artist talk
- enlighten by sharing book recommendations
- swap art supplies (we all have too many)
- share knowledge of all things arty: materials, opportunities, and other resources
The HOW: DART! (Dating for ART aka finding friends to combat artist loneliness)
Converse in rapid segments with fellow creative types and bond over:
- art loves/ woes
- art making in isolation/ community
- art and parenting
- art supplies
- art experiences
The WHAT: Create "Calling Cards” inspired by artist Liana Finck to exchange with your new found art buddies!
The WHO: Anyone! Find your creative kin.
