Matching Angel was launched to meet the needs of a community that longs for more connection in real life.

The time has come for a fresh breeze of chance.
Be ready to learn how to make more meaningful connections.
Be open and positive to meet genuine people in real life.
Feel different.
How it works
In Julia Cameron’s seminal work ‘The Artist’s Way’, an artist date is a pre-planned excursion to treat your inner artist to a fun and engaging experience that will spark inspiration.
This is a chance to meet other members in the community. Let's connect over a regular monthly social at the Art Gallery of NSW. Meet someone new based on serendipity—the ultimate date with destiny.
Please note, over 95% of attendees come alone. There is no need to feel apprehensive, nervous or worried about coming alone. Your host will welcome you, help you get comfortable and support you with meeting other attendees.
Be your beautiful self and bring a positive attitude. <3
