About this Event
An afternoon of art, conversation and making new connections, brought to you by Whim & Kin.
Think friendship speed-dating, but with sketchbooks.
You’ll meet different women throughout the afternoon, take turns drawing one another, swap portraits and get to know the person behind the face.
The best part? You don’t need to know how to draw. The idea is to have fun, mingle, and start the year connecting with others in a creative way.
WHAT TO EXPECT
- Draw a stranger: Meet different people through fun, relaxed portrait-drawing rounds.
- Good conversations: Break the ice without the awkward small talk.
- A little creative freedom: Experiment with pencils, pens, paints and whatever feels right.
- A cosy atmosphere: Music, refreshments and plenty of opportunities to mingle.
WHO IS THIS FOR?
Women who want to start 2027 meeting new people, try something creative, step outside their usual routine or simply spend an afternoon doing something different.
Feel free to come alone or come with friends!
Whether you’re an artist or haven’t picked up a pencil or painbrush since school, there’s a place for you at the table.
