Want to write but having trouble getting started? Or tired of writing alone into the void? Join us for a drop-in writing space, open to all and free (donations to Looky Here for letting us use the space are encouraged). We will say hello to each other, share a prompt or brief piece to get us going, but mostly we will just write together.

In this class, we will work from Hannah’s new Munsell Textbook to paint our own color charts that can be kept and used for reference for the rest of our creative lives!
This class will run 6 weeks on Wednesdays starting February 4th through March 11th and will meet from 6-8pm at Looky Here.
Paint and reading materials will be included, though feel free to bring your favorite paint brushes and other materials to try.
