This a group for photographers who explore urban areas seeking a particular aesthetic. It is not the modern, clean, well-ordered architecture or landscape environment nor it is a sentimental view of beauty: a flower, beautiful people, a loyal pet, a scenic vacation... it is a darker vision.  It is not necessarily "urban" as you can see from past meetups.  It has been a decommissioned Navy base (Mare Island), former prison (Alcatraz), pet cemetery (Presidio), industrial shoreline (Pt. Richmond) a …

The purpose of this group is to support the creation of a vibrant tantric community of likeminded others, and share the tantra vision with the world. Steve & Lokita Carter are lineage holders of Margot Anand's SkyDancing Tantra. Margot is the author of several best-selling titles on Tantra, including the "bible" of modern Tantra, "The Art of Sexual Ecstasy". If you are interested in SkyDancing Tantra, would like to learn more about it, want to connect and like-minded others, and deepen your tant …

Craft Flash Mob is a group that connects crafters and DIY enthusiasts of all ages with peers who like to do the same. This group is loosely based upon the idea of a flash mob, where people show up en masse to a location, participate in some (often unusual) activity, and then disperse. Crafting in coffee shops and cafes is a lot of fun to do with others and might be considered an "unusual activity" by some. So, join this group if you: are an adult over 21 years of age, have DIY/craft projects th …

There will be time for free drawing at each meetup, but mostly there are themes fo …

We are a group of women who enjoy walking/hiking some of Marin's most beautiful trails. We get together one to two times a month to walk primarily in Southern and Central Marin with less frequent trips out to Point Reyes. We intentionally keep each event small so that we can get to know each other and keep logistics simple. We welcome individuals who are fit enough to keep up with the brisk walking/moderate hiking pace, who enjoy the art of conversation and who can actively contribute to the p …

Come together to share your sculpture work, discuss different mediums and go to gallery events in the bay area. Feel free to suggest an event or host at your studio.

Let’s start networking with the people who are in this business. Shooting photo, editing images and selling products online. Product photography could well be the single most important design aspect of any e-commerce website. Without the ability to touch, hold, smell, taste or otherwise handle the products they are interested in, potential customers have only images to interact with. Ultimately, the softer, tastier, flashier and more attractive your products look to shoppers, the more confident …

I assume you think, dream or make art like I do. I am not as much into the museum scene but tend to check out local galleries and some genres of art in particular; impressionism upwards, abstract and such kinds of stuff that puts some people to sleep. I hate to use the word 'serious', but as an artist, I am constantly looking for new ideas and thought I'd be fun to do this with others. To get a sense of the tone of the group, perhaps you can check out my artist page & blog at facebook.com/thou.a …
