ARTIST BLEND - CREATIVE MEET UP

The Artist Blend, an exclusive space for artistic expression and collaboration nestled in the heart of Downtown ABQ. From March to June, join us at various coffee shops for a curated series of meetups, bringing together a diverse community of local artists, musicians, writers, and crafters.

Our events provide a unique opportunity for individuals to connect, collaborate, and cultivate creativity in a focused environment. With limited capacity to ensure an intimate atmosphere, participants can engage in meaningful discussions, work on personal projects, and explore new artistic mediums.

Join us and elevate your artistic journey – it's not just about the coffee; it's about building a community where creativity thrives and connections are forged. Experience the synergy of art and professionalism at The Artist Blend.
