Sticking with the volunteering option are there any opportunities to get involved with any community arts projects in your area? I am not a sewer really but I am an arty type and I have been helping make costumes for a community arts project with a group of people who do all sorts of things like art workshops for kids with learning difficulties, in schools and various community projects. It is ace and something I am keen to keep doing. Not only is the work fun and worthwhile I have met more people in a very short space of time than I usually meet in a year, and because it is something I enjoy doing I actually have something in common with them. If your community doesn't appear to have anyone doing this stuff maybe it is something you could start yourself. I am sure there will be something somewhere though. Even my local addiction centre has an arts class...
