Ever wanted to meet new people without the pressure of figuring out what to say?
This time, we're giving you something to talk about.
Join us for a special Terrible Art Night + Fast Friends at La di da, where you'll draw the person you're talking to, chat while you draw, switch partners and meet someone completely new.
And don't worry about your artistic ability.
The worse the portrait, the better. 😂
With only 26 spots available, this is a small, interactive evening designed to help you meet people naturally — with a fun activity taking the pressure off starting conversations.

🎨 HOW IT WORKS
You'll go through 6 Fast Friends rounds, meeting someone new each time.
✏️ 7 minutes — Draw your partner
💬 Chat while you draw using a fun conversation prompt
🔄 Switch — meet someone new and start again
By the end, you'll have met six different people, had six easy conversation starters and created some wonderfully terrible portraits.

The six rounds are done — now it's time to reveal the masterpieces. 😂
