NOVA Scribes is a free and open forum for visual practitioners to share their knowledge.
I’m proud to have been an organizer of the Meetup group NOVA Scribes since its launch in January 2016. Since then, NOVA Scribes has grown to over 700 members! We originally started in the northern Virginia area (NOVA, get it?), but our open membership has expanded to include members from all over the world.
In case you HAVEN’T heard of NOVA Scribes, it is a free and open forum for visual practitioners to share their knowledge.
We are a community of practice of anyone who uses visuals to move others: visual facilitators, graphic recorders, scribes, sketchnoters, video scribers, UX designers, and visual consultants.
We're all volunteers.
We have organized classes, graphic jams, open spaces, and webinars to share skills and learn from each other.
We record our webinars and post them for anyone to watch later, whether you are a member or not. It’s all about growing the knowledge of the field.
Anyone who wants to can be an organizer or presenter. If you're interested in presenting a topic, please let me know! The proceeds from the events go to the presenters and into the Meetup group for scholarships and to help build the community of visual practitioners.
It’s free to be a NOVA Scribes member. When we charge for events, the proceeds go to the presenters and into our community as scholarships towards training and events like IFVP.
Here are YouTube links to NOVA Scribes’ recorded webinars. I’m also including links to the each event page, which includes photos and sketchnotes of the events.
Enjoy, and please consider joining our growing community!
