Comics are brilliant. They are also an overlooked and under-appreciated part of the literary establishment, so we're looking to redress the balance a little. This group will work pretty much like a traditional book club - we pick a new graphic novel or collection every month, read it and meet up for a discussion over coffee or a beer. We're going to try to find the literary corners of the graphic storytelling medium - I'm interested in how art style informs character perception; how panel layout …

The new language of video is pervasive. It has become the medium for training, entertainment, social advocacy, promotion, and just plan diversion. Creating short (less than 10 minute) well crafted stories requires a small group effort that moves us from our reliance on the online world to face to face collaboration with like minded creative people. This meet up group will bring together small teams of creative individuals to work together to conceptualize, plan, execute and critique short video …

Did you know that putting several writers to work in one space creates a kind of bubble of focus and productivity? It's pretty amazing. There is no ending point. People generally start wandering out arou …

We view the selected film and then go to a nearby restaurant to discuss. Sharing thoughts and ideas from the multiple perspectives gathered, we learn from each other and also have some fun. The goal of the group is to create a community for people who are interested in film and with that in mind, please RSVP with consid …
