I started this group because there are tons of us in this city, but for some reason, we all seem to be scattered or otherwise barred from connecting with one another in a meaningful way. So, I figured that even the littlest excuse can help bridge that gap. To read a makeshift manifesto for the group, click here: http://www.meetup.com/Twenty-Something-Artists-Wr …

We are a collective of intellectual eccentrics, passionate about learning and our various (and yes, I mean various) arts. Wal …
