Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsI long for a community of creatives online...
So many creative communities are geared toward making money or making MORE money or increasing productivity in your creative life. To me, these are all pursuits of the corporate mindset and higher profits. I wish there were communities of writers, artists, creatives of all types that congregated just to learn and celebrate the joy of creation. Very difficult to find online. Anyone know of such communities?

(7,518 posts)is because of a watercolor group I discovered. It provides exactly the kind of support you talk about... except just for watercolors. (I think the moderator has others... like for sketching or mixed media... not sure.)
Anyway, I know this isn't really what you're looking for, but thought I'd throw it out there. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1182099838663903

Community colleges might be another place to begin your quest.
In-person is always better than online.
