☀️Edinburgh: 20s & 30s Meetup🎉

Valentine’s weekend feels like a good excuse to appreciate Edinburgh.

Join us for a relaxed, easy-paced walk from Water of Leith towards Dean Village, one of the city’s prettiest and most calming routes. This is a friendly, social walk with no Valentine’s agenda and no pressure, just fresh air, good conversation, and a chance to enjoy the city.

We’ll keep a comfortable pace with plenty of opportunity to chat and take in the surroundings. The walk is mostly flat and suitable for all abilities. We’ll likely finish around the centre of town, with an optional drinks/food at Wetherspoons for anyone who fancies it.

Meeting point:
🕜 13:30 upstairs at Starbucks Stockbridge
Please try to arrive a few minutes early so we can head off on time.

What to bring:
• Comfortable shoes
• Weather-appropriate layers
• Your favourite winter mood (all others also accepted)

Whether you’re new to the group or a regular, come along and enjoy a chilled afternoon appreciating Edinburgh together.

Valentine’s weekend feels like a good excuse to appreciate Edinburgh.

Continuing that, join us for a relaxed, playful sketching walk through Edinburgh’s Old Town. This event combines short creative prompts with a Sketch & Swap activity, designed to get you drawing without pressure and enjoying the city in a new way.

We’ll make a few stops along the route for quick sketches (no long sitting sessions), using gentle prompts to spark ideas. One stop will include a Sketch & Swap, where you’ll pass your sketchbook or paper to someone else to continue your drawing — it’s collaborative, light-hearted, and great for breaking the ice.

This is not an art class and absolutely no drawing experience is needed. Stick figures, scribbles, and half-finished sketches are all very welcome. The focus is on curiosity, play, and spending a creative afternoon outdoors.

We’ll finish nearby with an optional café stop for anyone who’d like to chat and continue sketching.

Meeting point:
🕐 13:00 outside St Giles’ Cathedral (Royal Mile side)

What to bring:
• Sketchbook or loose paper
• Pen, pencil, or one favourite drawing tool
• Something to sit on (optional)
• Weather-appropriate layers

Whether you’re new to the group or a regular, come along and enjoy a creative wander through Edinburgh together.
