Welcome to 2026 and another great Blender year. Let’s ring in the new year with a celebration of the new(ish) Blender 5 release. Come hear about the latest in Blender news and ongoings. Bring a notebook PC or a thumb drive to show off your latest Blender-centric project work. Ping me if you have a session you’d like added to the agenda.
With the global aspect of Blender it would also be nice to meet and share with people in different parts of the world. Without having to travel to BCON.
That’s fair. I dropped the ball on getting the word out on this meeting until just before due to holiday travel, etc. As we run the meetings both in-person and online, I thought it might be useful for our online joiners.
Regarding other in-person meetups in other locations, there are a number of them. If there is not one in your home city, then create one! For those in the US, don’t miss the upcoming BCON Austin
We record the meetings and post them online at https://www.youtube.com/@lablender
This meeting included audio issues and thus posting will depend on speaker re-recording. Meeting sessions included:
What’s new with Blender
Blender VR projects and the Apple Vision Pro
AI driven Blender with Blender-MCP (Two speakers)
We hold meetings for each major Blender version release, so roughly every 4 months or so.
Although our event presenters are mostly LA locals (and from the US), we have on occasion had remote presenters from outside of the country. If you have a Blender-centric topic you’d like to share with our group, ping me directly to discuss.
