great way to get a sense of a city, whether that be where u live or just a place you’re visiting. i also love seeing ppl make and share work outside of institutional structures. reminds me of how weird and creative we can be <3

where i am, there’s a big open gallery art event the first saturday of the month. you can just walk from gallery to gallery downtown for the evening.
it’s easy and encouraged to talk to a gallery manager. they are there to tell people about the space, so you can walk up and literally say “tell me about this place!” and off they go. i often find that an artist or two is hanging around them as well at which point you can strike convos ab their experiences and inspiration and all that
also helps to drag a friend or two so it’s not as much holding a drink in the corner, but remember most everyone who goes to events is there for the social aspect, and is more than willing to chat with like minded people. if someone looks interested in something you find interesting, just ask them about it (:

Always good to be able to pick the brain of creatives, what drives them, what inspires, etc.

whenever i’m feeling stagnant, i take a shower. it’s an instant reset, don’t even have to wash your hair, it’s enough to just be under a hot faucet for 4 min

today my friend showed me an archived and functioning version of kid pix on the internet archive. when i was in elementary school, we used to have computer class every thursday where we got to play with kid pix, i remember the little theme song and making images for stories id write. i rly love returning to it as a low stakes and low barrier way to make visual art :p
