Bristol arts collective and event organisers for the good of the people. Join us for our regular sketch crawls.

Sally, Quantocks and Wonday have been mischief makers since their first encounter in 2010. Now we're a small Bristol arts collective officially formed in May 2016 over a pint and some pencils. We provide the artist tiles, you provide your tasty brains.

We had a special antipodean during lockdown, bringing together Chris, Bec, Alex, Martin and George across different timezones to do what we do best: drink and draw!
The first task was to draw a self portrait for the video call; you can see the striking resemblances in the first slide.
Next was to draw as a friendly cartoon character, to which the response was... unsettling to say the least.
We moved on to draw which place you'd most like to visit when lockdown is over. Martin showed his favourite spot in Sweden, Chris and Bec drew stadiums and nature and George drew Woolacombe beach in UK. Alex was already at the pub fixing WiFi, so he won the 'desire into reality' award. 🏆

From The Canteen to () The Golden Guinea to the Portwall Tavern, from the Tavern to The Old Duke, Gosha's House (), then home. Shout out to the chartered surveyors visiting from "up north" who were having a merry crawl round our merry city, and the pair who bought a couple of artist tiles from
This week's was a strong one. We were thinking and celebrating an early (W)aster Sunday. Prepare for the next this coming Sunday 7th. We'll be doing it instead of a session as the weather is meant to be crap.
I'm going to create the new Meetups group this week. It'll be found under the new name 'On the Tiles (Draw and Crawl)' and we hope to see many new faces over the coming months.

Introducing to Bristol our new community clear up group: Glitter Picking🗑️🌟💫🏘️♥️
Alternating Sundays and Mondays every week we crab around the local area with pincers readily provided by Bristol Council, picking up rubbish and dancing to a barrage of funky tunes 🎶
We welcome anyone from kids and parents to people in retirement. You don't need to come with anything but a willingness to help (but sturdy boots would help).
We'll regularly have craft days to bring our equipment up to the "Glitter Picking" standard. Get involved!
Next litter pick: 12.30 on Monday 28th. Location tbc.
