Tampa Adult Coloring Books Meetup

Palm Harbor, FL

Tampa Adult Coloring Books Meetup

Would you like to go back to these youth days where coloring was the best? Adult coloring has taken off though we find our color pencils techniques have changed and coloring books are much more sophisticated with specialized books catering to almost painting-like quality drawings.

This group is for adults who would like to share and learn new techniques of coloring. From learning about paper weight, using color pencils, felt or alcohol-based pens, blending techniques, etc. Many videos exist describing coloring techniques to be made the focus of a meetup session for practice.

The goal is to start with a monthly 2-hour meetup session where attendees are invited to come with their coloring material and started projects. A public library room if the session is going to include more involved techniques or meeting in a restaurant for brunch/lunch followed by a coloring session would be the ideal locations. This will be decided based on the number of participants and the learning techniques involved that day. But most importantly we get to spend and share our hobby with other coloring passionates. And we come out relaxed and ready for world.

This group is for all. There is no levels in coloring! I myself discovered this world quite recently and like that there is no need for investments. Yes I use Crayolas; and bought a basic coloring booklet at Publix which I have used to spend numerous hours in a happy coloring mood. I now have invested in basic felts and a few blending pens. So feel easy if you are also a beginner in adult coloring. The goal is to find others to share a coloring session with.

Young at Heart

Tampa, FL

Young at Heart

About Young At Heart Singles

We are a lively, active Tampa-based social group for singles age 40 and up. We get together for fun and friendship with a variety of indoor and outdoor events. This is not a dating club. We organize a lot of theater at the straz and ruth Eckerd hall, dinners, happy hours, dancing, movies, , picnics, ,  to name a few activities. 

I am the only organizer arranging events right now, but if you want to host something, please let me know and I will make you an event host.  I am very passionate about theater and concerts, but I try to do 2 dinners a month and try to organize other stuff. 

Members are encouraged to suggest ideas and places for new meet ups.  I also send out a lot of emails to keep your informed, some times they can be for tickets I have for sale, I send out last calls and I try to keep you informed while also my emails can be personal, sarcastic, and mostly informative. 

 If you do not want to receive these emails you can opt out and still be a member of the group. You can also just skip them or delete them.  God knows I get hundreds of Amazon emails, but I don't read every one of them and I love Amazon. 

  I have people that do not like my theater events, but read my emails for entertainment purposes.  Bur if you opt out, you will probably not be informed and won't know what is going on. It would be up to you to at least visit once a week, as depending on the event or show, they can fill up right away.  If you can't figure out how to opt out shoot me an email at sbbroadway@aol.com and I can shut that feature off for you, 

Membership Requirements

· 40 and up.

· To join, post a recognizable photo of yourself, answer the profile questions and agree to the policies.

· Follow Policies.

Event Locations

The events are primarily in the Tampa area. Members who live farther away can offer to plan and host an event in their area where they are familiar with the opportunities. The organizers will help set it up.

Costs

I am probably one of the few organizers who does not charge annual dues.  I make it voluntarily.  Sometimes people give me 5.00 or so at a time, but I do not bug people at every event for any kind of money.  The only money I collect is when it is time to pay for a show.  I have had a relationship with the group sales department for Ruth Eckerd Hall and The Straz for several years and I treasure those relationships.  It is my passion and some people think I go over the top.

Policies

RSVP Policy: Please respond to a meetup initially only if you are responding YES. (Not necessary to respond NO.) However, please change your YES RSVP to a NO as soon as you find you cannot attend an event after all. This will help organizers plan for seating, managing wait lists, etc.

Appropriate Conduct Policy: All members are expected to conduct themselves appropriately within the positive, friendly spirit of the group - to members and staff at events or online. Pay your checks and tip staff fairly, etc. Events are not to be used for personal gain or advertising.

To remain an active member, please attend an event within 60 days of joining.

Helpful hints and thoughts to consider:

· The best time to mingle and meet many people at a dinner event is during the happy hour. Once you are seated for dinner, you will only be able to visit with the people seated closest to you. But feel free to move around and visit other tables once you’re done with your meal.

· Our dinner events are well attended and when there is so much lively conversation among so many lively, interesting people, it gets very noisy. If you are hoping for quiet conversations in subdued settings, watch for one of the smaller event opportunities.

· Consider suggesting ideas for meetups related to your own interests or hobbies. Whether it’s brunch, bowling, a concert, or a hike, new friends with similar interests are just waiting to join you.

· Positive feedback and good ideas are welcome and should be offered in the positive, friendly spirit of this group and with consideration for the volunteers who give their own time and energy to create fun for all of us. Negative comment is not useful or tolerated.

I understand "Life" happens, but ask that you please RSVP responsibly. As I mentioned above, I truly understand "Life" happens. However, if you become a repeat offender you risk being removed from the group permanently. RULE #2 Please understand that if you are a NO SHOW, unfortunately you may be in risk of being removed from the group permanently. This will not be done immediately. A message will go out to all 1st time NO SHOWS after the event ends where you will be given a chance to communicate your reasons. Upon the 2nd NO SHOW, you risk permanent removal from the group. So, please plan accordingly & remember to update your R.S.V.P. immediately (at least 24 hours) whenever you find a conflict in your schedule. I totally understand things happen & life doesn't always go as planned. Please respect your Hosts by messaging us or updating your RSVPs. Thank you! RULE #3 There are no +1's to our events, unless 24-48 hrs prior to the event start time & space is available. Please gain host's approval before bringing any guest.

I am hoping you'll feel the Membership fee is small compared to the friendships that are made, fun times experienced & memories created for you! There is no pressure in staying with the group, but I hope you do! Thank you & I look forward to meeting you!
