A gathering : For Artists Who Miss Their Inner Circle

If you are reading this, you probably know the feeling of being surrounded by art in Vienna, yet feeling completely isolated from a community that truly speaks your language. I am a musician who came from a background where the artistic circle was our second family. I’m not here to start just another social club; I want to recreate **that genuine artistic collective**—a place where we don’t just talk about art, but where art is the foundation of our connection." **What we’ll do:We'll be meeting outdoors at Donauinsel,** While we want to keep things relaxed, we will have a clear agenda to guide our conversation: 1. **Our Backgrounds:** Sharing our artistic journeys and the specific community vibe we feel is missing. 1. **The Viennese Scene:** A candid talk about our struggles and experiences as creatives in this city. 1. **Our Next Steps:** Discussing what we actually want to build together in future meetups. So, no stiff formal atmosphere, just a real, focused conversation among peers. **Looking ahead:** This is already our **second meetup**, which means this community has officially begun. Our first gathering was small—just seven people—but it turned into one of those conversations that leaves you feeling hopeful. We connected, shared our stories, and all agreed that we wanted to keep this going. Now the seven of us are looking forward to meeting you. We'd love for you to join us and become part of what we're building together **Feel free to bring a blanket or something comfortable to sit on. If you'd like to bring some food or drinks for yourself (or to share), you're more than welcome. Just come as you are.** **The exact meeting point will be shared with all attendees before the event.**
