Sketchnote Connect 2026
what is sketchnote connect
At the international Sketchnote Camp in Birmingham in 2025, a few people asked, if there is an English version of our monthly German online meetup Kritzelspiele www.kritzelspiele.de (“doodle games”). We said: let’s do it, and here we are.
Sketchnote Connect has been an online conference format Marianne hosted in 2020 and 2021, each with over 60 people from 14 countries. There were also several Converstion Cafe meetings, where the Sketchnone Community met just to talk and see each other. Now let’s re-use this space to create a new format.
details
We meet on Saturdays for 3 hours to be inspired, draw, doodle and most importantly, have time to talk with each other.
You can join whenever you like, stay how long you want and leave whenever you need to.
There is no ticket, no commitment, no pressure.
Imagine this as a table in a cozy cafe where you just drop by, meet some old friends and make new ones 🙂
