Also, I do not want to be the only one managing this group so please send all suggestions and come prepared to give your two cents t …

We are a group that meets on the first Sunday of Every month. Our main purposes are to explore alternative economies, divert unnecessary landfill waste, connect with our neighbors, and have fun doing it! We are like freecycle.org, but at a Location! As a community we have many more resources than we do as individuals. If we share our resources we won't need to buy as many new ones. This uses fewer of the Earth's resources, and fewer of our working hours, leaving us more time to devote to ourselv …

Tell me if any of these sound familiar: “I just wish I had the time — then I’d do my creative thing.” “I want to… but I don’t have the talent. I’m not creative..” “My stuff just isn’t good enough.” “How can I justify spending time creating, when there are so many really important things I have to get done?” “I want to create so badly, so why do I always end up procrastinating?” “I’m a very creative person but unable to find a way to express myself.” “I have lots of huge, long term projects start …

I started this group to bring together folks that love to create. The group is a place to learn about mosaics, create mosaics, and have a community to work alongside. This meetup is held in my indoor-outdoor studio space under a grove of palm trees. I have lots of supplies left over from projects and collected, but never used. Just come as you are and start to create a lasting piece of art! It is really fun to see a pile of broken pieces come together into a unique piece of art!

Would you like a bit of support from others who struggle with the same issues? This is not, I repeat, NOT a group for critiquing each other's work. This is a g …
