*Play: Players will be rotated around multiple courts and will get games similar to their level of play*
**Late Backout & No-Show Policy**
**We strictly enforce our late backout and no-show rules to ensure smooth operations.** Organising replacements on short notice is difficult and disruptive, especially as our organisers have day jobs. Please be mindful of our policy:
* **RSVP Policy:** Please RSVP for sessions exclusively through the Meetup app. WhatsApp is mainly for regular updates on attendance, timings and last-minute changes. Any requests made via WhatsApp might not be considered for session sign-ups.
* **Late Backouts:** Backing out within 9 hours of the session is considered a late backout. You will be required to pay the session fee in full, even if a replacement is found.
* **No-Shows:** If you fail to show up without notice, you must still pay for the session.
* **Respect for the Organisers:** Our organisers finalise the list the night before or early morning. Last-minute changes mean they need to leave their work to arrange replacements. This affects not just the organisers but the overall experience of the players.
* **Waitlist Responsibility:** If you're on the waitlist and no longer wish to attend, it’s your responsibility to remove your name. We assume that anyone on the waitlist still wants to join the session if a spot opens up.
* **First-Come, First-Serve Basis:** We ensure fairness by adhering to a first-come, first-serve system. Please do not ask for special treatment or last-minute slots outside of this.
**Note: Players may cancel without penalty up to 9 hours before the session. After this time, the session fee applies regardless of waitlist status. Please book and cancel responsibly to avoid disruptions for everyone involved.**

Dubai FREEHAND Art
🎨 FREEHAND Creative Words Game
Join us for a relaxed and fun creative session where imagination, collaboration, and artistic expression come together.
FREEHAND is a creative community organized by Canvasians Events and Conferences, bringing together artists, designers, photographers, creative professionals, students, and anyone interested in art and creativity.
During this session, we play the FREEHAND Creative Words Game.
A theme or "world" is selected first, then random word cards are drawn from a prepared deck. Each participant interprets the word in their own way and creates a drawing inspired by the selected theme.
In the collaborative version of the game, participants work on shared artworks. After 10 minutes, each drawing is passed to another participant, who receives a new word and continues developing the artwork. The process continues until multiple artists have contributed to the same piece.
In the individual version, several random words are selected, and each participant creates a complete artwork inspired by those words and the chosen theme.
There is no right or wrong interpretation. The goal is to explore creativity, discover new ideas, and enjoy the artistic process in a friendly and supportive environment.
✅ Free participation
✅ Paper, colors, and materials provided free of charge
✅ Open to all skill levels
✅ Feel free to invite friends and family
✅ No pressure, no competition, just creativity
Participants are welcome to order food, coffee, or drinks from the café according to their preference. Orders are paid individually by each participant. The venue generously hosts our gathering without charging us, and FREEHAND does not charge any attendance fee for this activity.
Come draw, collaborate, meet new people, and enjoy an evening of creativity.
Join us for our next **Dubai** **Freehands art** meetup! - Free 🖌️☕
📍 **Location:** Le Pain Quotidien, Dubai Marina Mall
⏰ **Time:** 6:30 PM – 9:30 PM

Bring your sketchbook, enjoy a warm drink, and let your imagination take over!
