About us
Rotterdam Creative Flock is a local/online chapter of flock & doodle, hosting relaxing creative events that require no prior experience. It's a space where tired adults can meet, unwind, and rediscover their creativity.
Face-to-face sessions are held at the Rotterdam Collective (Het Schieblock), unless otherwise stated; sometimes we meet up in parks to do life drawing.

where: Kralingse Bos, Rotterdam
language of instruction: English. I also speak Polish and Dutch
age group: 18+ground yourself. put your pencil to paper, take a deep breath before you start drawing. observe.
inwards is a series of relaxed charcoal drawing workshops, open to all levels and requiring no "artistic talent". I'll guide you through an activity to loosen up first, then introduce a creative prompt combining life drawing and self-reflection. everyone is free to share (or not if you're not comfortable!) their work. we will meet in a small group of up to 6, so that everyone feels comfortable.
is this for you?
- you are looking for a therapeutic outdoor activity
- you want to draw without pressure
- your idea of unwinding after work is something more introspective and quiet rather than going out
what is included?
- materials to use during the session (charcoal sticks and pencils, paper)
- guidance by an experienced artist
- all your pieces to be brought home safely
- blanket
feel free to bring your own sketchbook or drawing pad.
this initiative is made possible thanks to Cultuur Concreet and Neon Foundation 🫶
PLEASE NOTE: if the weather is not kind to us, the workshop might be rescheduled or cancelled.
I am taking sign-ups for this series both on meetup and via DM, thus the list here might be closed even when it's not looking full. if that is the case, please add yourself to the waitlist and you shall be contacted if a spot frees up.
