It's ironic that the art most people call Taiji has now been reduced to a wimp's boxing rather than the 'supreme ultimate boxing,' which is what T'ai chi ch'uan means. Once …

The concept behind this Meetup is not a new one; artists have always collaborated with one another to stoke their creative fires by reacting artistically to each others work. In this case, the idea is for each artist to bring a sketchbook, begin a drawing, then have that sketchbook rotated through everyone else at the table, allowing the other artists to add to, and finish the drawing. You don't have to be a good artist to participate; the end result will be interesting no matter what, and even …
