This is an invitation for an online meeting on 29/03/21 for all interested in Libre Graphics Club programme which will run from April to August 2021. This first, introductory, session will be focused on broader issues around relationship between Free Software art and design and discussion about digital tools and their impact on creative practice.

All ideas will be collaboratively documented on provided online platform and taken into consideration for at least one of the sessions in the pilot.
