What is "Patron Enrollment Week"?!
Well, I just made it up a few months ago! ๐ I was thinking of more ways to cultivate a dynamic & engaged community among my amazing co-creators ๐
I'm always so grateful when I get to see you all during the Create Dates; or when we connect via Patreon messages. From this, I've noticed that similar questions arise. So, I thought it would be nice to take some dedicated time to help us all get to know the digital tools & platforms better.
Instead of just one Create Date in March, I'm going live on 4 different occasions to connect, educate, and build with you all. Here are the dates to remember for March (this will all be included in the Mothership calendar for you to reference later):
March 5 & 6; 12 - 4p: Mural Pick-up
Lightbeam/Supporters & Nebula/Squad patrons - If you live in Washington and want a piece of the Mama's gun mural, you can pick it up from my art studio during the above time window. Supernova/Family patrons, your painting will be shipped to your home with your monthly greeting card set. RSVP at the link provided in Patreon to schedule a pick-up time for your original A.O. artwork.
March 8: 3p (~30-45 mins): Discord & Mothership Tutorial
I want you to better understand these tools and feel comfortable using them. Let's chat live via this private YouTube livestream where I'll give you a tour of the Mothership, our digital home where you can find all the things you need. The Discord app is new for me, too. We'll explore it together during this livestream. Have your desktop computer handy. This video will be recorded so if you can't make it live, you can re-watch it to better understand Discord & the Mothership at a later date.
March 10: 6p-7p: Meet the patrons
I want to meet you all! This is an one-hour ZOOM call that's simply dedicated to getting to know one another. I'm so excited for us all to meet in-person during the Patron Meet & Greet in June. Here's our opportunity to break the ice and get to know each other ahead of time. If you've never attended a Create Date, this is your chance to join us. All tiers are welcome during Patron Enrollment Week!
March 12: 12p - 1p: Share your work
Let's see what you've been up to! There's no pressure to share your work, but you are welcome to if you like. You will have the opportunity to share what you're working on & receive feedback if you desire. I will also go deeper into the artist's directory available in the Mothership. All tiers are welcome.
March 24: *new date 6p -7p: March Create Date (Nebula & Supernova)
Back to our regular scheduled program. Every month, we come together to create, chat, and connect. Bring whatever project you're working on during the virtual hangout and just vibe. Note: My apologies for the date change, I'm going home to Chicago and the most affordable return flight was right at the time of our Create Date of March 23rd :/
All the links will be shared in the following days & reminders will be sent as the days approach.
I hope this is week is full of helpful information & beautiful connections. I truly appreciate you all for being here and want to build a thriving creative community with you. If you have questions, feel free to drop them below or message me in Patreon.
Thank you so much! Sending you all the love & light ๐ซ๐
