About us
Welcome! Let's explore the creative side of SLO County. We'll get together for art shows, gallery walks, museum exhibitions, cultural experiences, painting classes, craft workshops, or anything that delights our eyes and inspires our creative minds. 🤩
Your ideas are welcome! Heard of an upcoming artsy event or show? Share it in Discussions or message the organizer, and we'll turn great ideas into group events.
Come join us for an upcoming gathering — there's so much art and inspiration to discover, and you might meet a new friend or two. 😉
(This group used to be known as "Art Adventures" and was renamed when a new organizer took over in June 2025.)
**********
If you're RSVPing for an event with us:
- Please make sure your Meetup profile includes at least a first name written in English letters (not just an initial) and a recognizable photo (sunglasses are fine). This helps keep our events safe, friendly, and connected, and a photo helps me spot you in a crowded venue when you're having trouble finding the group.
- We're a diverse group of folks who just want to enjoy beauty and each other's company. Let's steer clear of divisive social issues and political topics, and focus instead on our shared love of art and the good things in life. 😎

Cyanotype print workshop
Linda Cunningham's art studio, near Pomeroy Rd (address provided upon signup), Nipomo, CA, USLet's create some beautiful blue-and-white prints! How cyanotype printing works: we place objects or stencils on light-sensitive paper to create a unique design, expose the paper to the sun or UV light, and finally rinse to reveal the finished product.
Instructor: Linda Cunningham
Cost: $45 (pay in class by cash, check, or Venmo)
Location: Linda's art studio near Pomeroy Rd, Nipomo (the exact address will be provided after signing up)*TO REGISTER*
Call or text Linda at 805-478-2158.Please bring some snacks with you, as the workshop runs through lunchtime. Linda explained to me that this timing is ideal because paper is best exposed to sunlight when the Sun is high in the sky — around midday. And if we don't have enough sunlight on that day, we'll use a UV lamp instead.
