Doodling seemed to imply, even in the name, that it isn't to be taken TO seriously.  Neither is this group for that matter... This is a place to explore your artistic side, drawing, cartooning, journaling, sketching, painting or that font you've always wanted to create.  I hope we can in insure a lot of fun and exploration, with like minded folks. This is meant to be a low key, supportive space, where we can learn and push ourselves, while thoroughly ignoring our inner critics. I hope you have a …

This group will meet to explore all the ways that expressive arts (especially art journals, visual diaries and vision boards) can help us understand and express who we are in the world, make meaning of our lives and the events in them, and move us closer to the lives we envision for ourselves. We'll spend some time each meeting exploring a new technique or theme, give everyone some time to work on a personal project, and share what we discover. No experience required!

ArtKlub is a group of friends who are local Northern Virginia, Maryland, West Virginia, and Washington DC artists that meet weekly for fun, self-education and encouragement, and to obtain critiques and try vet new ideas. Sometimes we're pencil to paper, sometimes we're discussion and goofing off. We are there to create, inspire, and share.  We help hold each other accountable to making deadlines for commissions, when asked to do so. This is not like book club, sipping tea and having intellectua …

Let's go see live comedy! Nobody wants to go by themselves and get stuck in the front row... (I think.) As a group, we can get discounts and maybe other perks.

Mixing drawing, yoga, camping and more! Want to draw the human figure? Non instructional sessions that enable artists to draw from a life model, either full figure draped/un-draped or portrait. Basically whatever the artist wants and demands. Bring own drawing materials and equipment to comfortably draw the life model during the 3 hour sessions. This session will be created based upon interest and demand of artists seeking to have opportunities to draw.

The goal is to have regularly scheduled meet ups at different locations in DC where we can sketch, draw, paint, or play with our medium of choice, discuss and offer constructive feedback …

We host a ton of FREE comedy shows in the DMV area, featuring some of the best local comedians. This is the place to find out about these shows!

The concept behind this Meetup is not a new one; artists have always collaborated with one another to stoke their creative fires by reacting artistically to each others work. In this case, the idea is for each artist to bring a sketchbook, begin a drawing, then have that sketchbook rotated through everyone else at the table, allowing the other artists to add to, and finish the drawing. You don't have to be a good artist to participate; the end result will be interesting no matter what, and even …

Act out theatre games - improvisationally create improvs, comedy skits, standup bits and acting exercises. This is for people who love charades, are fun and funny, and want to participate in a wide variety of acting exercises - to practice acting and comedy skills, have fun, and ideally build towards creating standup or skit comedy routines. We’ll act out theatre exercises (improv “games”) to improve our vocal production, movement, theatrical spontaneity, ability to working cooperatively in an e …

Do you like to draw? Do you like to drink? Do you like to do both at the same time, while hanging out with similar folks? Much like the combination of chicken and waffles, drinking and drawing go down smooth, in a delicious combination that needs to be tried to be believed, and yet upon checking out the other meetup options, I quickly realized I'd be either the only one drawing or the only one drinking, neither of which isn't awkward. Ergo, I'm setting this up to see if other folks might be inte …
