What we’re about
This group is focused on experiencing and discussing various forms of art, including music, film, theater, dance, poetry, literature, painting, and sculpture. Possible events may include concerts, plays, museums, art exhibits, watching a film, etc. The idea is that group events would involve experiencing some sort of art and then discussing the aesthetic, emotional, artistic expressive, and social implications. Many of the events will involve attending some event and experiencing the artistic performance or presentation and then discussing it as a group, perhaps at the same location or perhaps we might go somewhere else and have have drinks. The name “Dilettantes” carries both serious and playful connotations. We welcome dabblers in the arts and also those who are quite knowledgeable and can draw from their refined insights to help explain works to other members. We expect that there will also be opportunities for members to exhibit their own artistic creations to the group.
