Erie, PA and surrounding areas?

Im interested in hosting a jam. I can find a place and will do the legwork to make it happen if I have other painters interested. I am wanting to get together and chat, laugh and paint! I have found two other painters here, one is part of a clown league (that he wants me to join) and the other has not responded to my email yet. I am attempting not become stalker like in my attempt to find someone to paint with but Im so biting at the bit to start! I can be rather impatient, its difficult and alot like my two year old waiting on her Popsicle. Please PM me if your interested and Ill see what I can get together. Im willing to go about two hours away, so Pittsburgh and Cleveland OH are in the count!
Thank you.

I am about 40 min north of Pittsburgh. I am new like you and want to learn. If you can get something together, I would love to participate.

I know there is someone in Olean, NY- not far from Erie at all.

I'm about 4 hours away, so it's a bit much for me but I do work out that way on NY side all the time.

Oo Ill see what I can get together and create. Then post an event and hopefully some artists will show up!
any tips from people who do this on a normal basis?
