What we’re about
Our mission is to APP: Appreciate, Practice, and Preserve the arts.
Are you an artist? Art enthusiast?
Do you live in Caledonia, MI? Grand Rapids?
Well, this is the tribe for you?
We are a brand new group (est. November 13, 2021). While in our infancy phase, we will meet once a week with a different theme based on an art category (i.e. painting, drawing, poetry). As we grow, we will host weekly meeting for the categories that best match our individual interests (i.e. Monday meetings for poetry).
Dues are only $5/month. We want this to be affordable and to promote engagement and to support our organizer who will work hard to make this a great experience for all.
Rules:
Be Kind
Be Respectful
Be Considerate
Be Your Wonderful Self
Remember to RSVP and update your RSVP if you are unable to attend a meeting or event. The organizer will not judge you for canceling. This is very important and goes along with the rule of being considerate.👍🏽

✨SAVE THE DATE✨
Let's meet up for this fantastic event! RSVP as soon as possible but no later than September 18th at 5pm EST. I will need to send out important info the night before the event to all who plan to attend.
I am asking that everyone wears Purple and Gold*.* You are welcome to bring 1 adult guest. The goal is to build a bond as a group. Bringing a group of friends may interfere with that process.
