Welcome to our original character party-themed art jam group! This post is to help get you acclimated and give you more time for enjoying yourself, and less time scratching your head wondering what we're all about here at OC Party Time. So let's start with the bare necessities...
art jam - when a group of artists/creators get together and all make similarly themed content.
We are proposing that YOU be part of this group! Our theme is, of course, PARTIES! CHARACTERS attending parties! What kinds of parties, you ask? Well, we switch 'em up every three or-so months. This means you get four parties a year, where dress code, activities, menu, music, and guests will vary every time! If the current party isn't your bag, wait for the next invitation and see if it's more your taste. Being a member of the group will never necessitate that you MUST participate or send a guest to every event... simply join in when you like, whenever you like, and with as many characters as you like!
Oh, and a little note on that... We don't mean to pop anyone's balloon, but we only allow original characters. That's where the "OC" in the title comes in. Sorry about that. There's more about that in the rules.
Here is how it works: you create any kind of picture or written entry you'd like to represent your original character at the current party, and submit it to the proper section. That's it! You may submit as much (or as little!) as you like. This means whether you want to draw a single sketch of your character rockin’ some hats-n’-spats, or create a multi-page sequential masterpiece that shows a detailed step-by-step waltz, you are welcome, either way!
We accept all of the following types of media:
sketch
traditional/digital drawing
full illustration
comic
prose
script or screenplay
I dunno, what did you have in mind? Ask a mod if you're unsure!
So long as you find a way to show us that your character is attending… you're good! Also, please don’t hesitate to create art that shows what happens PRIOR to the event, such as your character getting ready and preparing, if that sparks your interest.
At the start of a party, you'll always-always be able to find these things in the Featured gallery:
An invitation that states theme, activities, and dates the party will be active
A menu showing you what's available for noshing
A music prompt post where you can help us make a party playlist
We also, when applicable, will include:
A venue map that will show you where the party is being hosted
Once we reach the end date, everything will be archived into a sub-folder for that party theme, and we'll start a new one. Any other questions, comments, concerns, or compliments? Well, as always, there's a bit more in the rules, but also do not hesitate to give a shout to any of your generous hosts - Sephiramy, Kayzig, or geekysideburns!
We hope to see you at the party!

November 26th - February 1st - NEW YEARS BASH!
If you found the formalities of a masquerade ball - bright-colored costumes aside - a bit stuffy, then we invite you to start 2015 with a far wilder bang! Loosen up and celebrate at a NEW YEARS BASH! You can find just about everything you need on the invitation:

And if there is anything you CAN'T find there, maybe try retracing your steps, stick with a friend (the buddy system!), or perhaps just ask a mod! We want you to have the time of your life, and that doesn't tend to happen when one is too confused to know up from down.
Or, well, I mean, if that's your thing... sometimes that is when you start having the MOST fun.

ETA: 10 minute last call!!
In about ten minutes, I will be beginning the switch-over of parties! If you'd like to come hang out in the chatroom as your mod Sephiramy (https://www.deviantart.com/sephiramy) flails around making changes and switching things over, feel free to come say hi!
We hope you enjoyed the Masquerade Ball! Seeing all of your creative costumes and gorgeous art was quite an inspiration! However, now is the time for something new - a fresh start of sorts - and we hope to see you there!
The LAST EVE of the Masquerade Ball!
A warm salutations to our guests, as we head into the final day of masks and mystery! For anyone looking to get in those last minute waltzes, we will be accepting submissions for the current theme until 12 am EST tonight. After that, everything will be catalogued into a new Masquerade Ball folder, and we will be posting up the new party! The entire switch up should not take more than about a half hour, so at about 12:30 am EST we should all be set for a major change of gears...
We were quite pleased to see a few more submissions go up in the extra week we needed to polish the next party. More is always better, and we are glad the time could
11/16 - Masquerade Extension
Greetings, to all our lovely guests! As I'm sure you know, the Masquerade was scheduled to end on the 19th, but as I'm sure you've already picked up on from the journal title to the last use of the word "was", plans are being changed. We are extending the Masquerade to end on 11/26. We just need a little extra time to prepare clean-up and preparation for the next event, given that even in real-life, this is a busy time of year with much to-do and planning.
We hope that all sits well with you, and you are still enjoying participation and observation of the current festivities!
