  Doylestown Creative Artists is a group for artists of any kind--writers, painters, musicians, etc.--who are actively involved in their passion either professionally or privately and who would like to make connections with other creatively driven individuals.

Attend once or attend each month. Begins September 8th and then the first Thursday of each month thereafter.

Whether it was experienced at play, drawing, painting, reading, telling stories, making up songs, building things or taking things apart!, dressing up, dancing, singing, playing an instrument, writing and most of all the forgotten art of daydreaming and fantasizing. These activities get lost in the "Everydays" of life as we grow older. For some it is lost early on while others can ma …
