Speed Sketch and Social / Bristol illustrators meet-up

Kick off your new year with PIP Illustration’s first meet-up of 2025! “Speed Sketch and Social” is all about keeping it simple. Expect creativity, connection, and a whole lot of fun. Designed to help you break the ice and meet fellow illustrators, we’re going to combine drawing with speed conversation games.

Whether you’re a seasoned professional or a budding illustrator, this is your chance to mingle, sketch, and spark inspiration with Bristol’s creative community.

Let’s make this a creative start to 2025. We can’t wait to see what you’ll draw and the connections you’ll make!

Expect:

• Sketchy Ice Breaker: Start the evening with a creative twist, we’ll begin by sketching a little doodle of a recent highlight from your week.
• 4 Sketch & Chat Games: Shoes & Stories, Outfits & Introductions, Portraits & Personality, Movement & Mingling.
• You’ll leave with new friends, fresh ideas, and maybe even a few collaborations in the works.

Please note: All drawing materials provided, but welcome to bring your own! Refreshments available on-site.

General Admission £5, AOI Members £3.50 – to cover costs.
