Welcome to Sketchy Collective!

We’re building a creative community where people can meet, share ideas, and make things together.

Right now, we host weekly drawing meetups in Helsinki (Finland) and Ha Noi (Vietnam). From time to time, we also pop up in other cities.

As our community grows, we’re aiming to expand not just to new locations but also into different kinds of creative meetups – from new drawing formats to collaborative projects beyond drawing (such as crafts, theater or music).

In May 2026, we’re heading to Sarajevo to organize drawing meetups, along with another project focused on bushcraft and repairing/customizing outdoor gear together (meetup.com/bushcraft-repair). Events in Sarajevo will be announced soon.

How our drawing meetups work?

At each meetup, we take turns being the model for a quick 10-minute sketch. One person poses, everyone else draws, then we switch. Easy, low-pressure, and fun.
