This was a special meetup for a couple of reasons.
- This was the first meetup that was conducted at a house rather than at a cafe or a park. And when one of our members, Gayathri, generously offered up her art studio as a venue for our meetup I jumped at the offer. I didn’t know how it would go because we’d always relied on snacks and beverages from a cafe. But the place looked beautiful so I didn’t think twice and we had a lovely time!
- It was our 25th meetup (quarter century babyyy!)
Anyway, there were 13 people at our 25th meetup on the 22nd of December and this time and I thank you all for coming despite the holiday season!
