This is a group for contemporary artists in the Silicon Valley area who desire to meet other artists for the sake of fostering artistic community. Silicon Valley is a tough area to work in as a contemporary artist.

This is a crazy idea I have.  To create a kind of virtual, old-fashioned neighborhood of friends to do stuff with when its more fun to be with someone than alone. I have no idea if anyone else has a need for this kind of community, nor have I thought through the details of how to make it work.  I need folks to show interest, share ideas, and share in leadership. Purpose: Create horizontal community that transcends age and interests.  Community for the sake of community.  There is nothing wrong w …
