Working artist looking for peer support

Howzit folks! This is an interest gauge (and a bit of a search for connections).

I’m a 31F working artist in the northern suburbs looking for groups or meetups with other artists at a similar life and career stage: people who rely on their creative practice to make a living (i.e. not a hobby or craft group, but people doing art to buy their two-minute noodles).

I’d love to be part of a small community of young adults making art of any kind (music, writing, visual arts, etc.) who meet weekly to work alongside one another, share learnings and contacts, and generally offer support and friendship.

Most suggestions I’ve received so far are either open to all ages (including kids or hobbyists), require payment to attend, or have more of a “looking for hookups” vibe.

Don’t get me wrong, children, older adults, hobbyists, and horny artists are all fantastic. I’m just looking for a friendly but professional space focused on learning, sharing, and supporting one another as working creatives.

Does anyone know of a group like this? Or would anyone be interested in joining one if I end up starting my own?
