Out of Our Minds is a guild of 17 professional women artists living in Eugene, Oregon. They share that "We create across a wide range of disciplines, yet we share a common thread: a respect for the artistic process and the desire to support and encourage one another’s unique paths and visions. Our founders began meeting up to counter-balance the sense of isolation that many artists feel because they work alone. Since 2014, our group has been meeting monthly, usually at one of our homes where we check in about work in progress and exchange information. We also use our meeting times to visit studio spaces, attend lectures and support community arts events."
