FAQs:
What is the SWMA art collective?
To be real, we are still figuring the answer to that out! Join this meeting to be a part of that journey. SWMA’s Art Collective is ready to grow, collaborate, and bring even more creativity to the community. At our core though, we are interested in building community, skillsharing, and empowering activism—all through the transformative power of art! 

I’m new to art or not very good at it. Can I still join?
Yes, of course! Everyone starts somewhere. It’s a myth that you have to be good at something to cause change or help others! Art comes in many forms too. It can look like talented drawing or even skillfully teaching! The SWMA Art Collective welcomes anyone of all levels.

How does the virtual meeting work?
SWMA uses Jitsi as our remote, virtual meeting platform of choice. It is entirely free, secure, private and open-source! No account is necessary for using it.

Thanks!
