Friday cocktails. Saturday coffees. Every month. Meet-up for like-minded artists working with cinema in film, web and design. Open to all.
What goes down?
Participants gather together, share collaborations, and celebrate accomplishments. The emphasis is to connect with active artists, build upon getting things done, and push forward the boundaries of the accepted status quo. Learn more about the FWD:labs collective.
Coffees and cocktails?
Some of us like to rise and shine with like-minds over good coffee; others like to get the evening started with like-minds over good cocktails. Salons alternate every two weeks between Friday cocktails and Saturday coffees.
What goes on at these meet-ups?
Good conversations, good company. Very little shop talk, but everyone is involved somehow with cinema. Stretching rolodexes, building community, flexing creativity. See our blog post from Salon #003 and Salon #001.
Where are they located?
We have a collective resource of creative spaces + places, which includes 30+ in Los Angeles that serve good happy-hour drinks, good coffee and/or good WiFi. Recommendations influence where we go next.
Can I attend?
Absolutely. We're a very friendly bunch. Upcoming meet-ups are on the left and also on Facebook. You can RSVP by e-mail, contact the host, or just drop by.
